We’re very sorry to say that James Morton has stepped down as Scottish Trans Alliance Manager, in order to take on a new career opportunity. James has led the STA since it began in 2007, and has grown it to four staff with a leadership role on trans equality in Scotland, so we will really miss him.

James will continue to work part-time for Scottish Trans Alliance as a consultant, for a few months, so he will still be around and helping us! Over the past few weeks, we have conducted an internal recruitment process to fill the STA Manager post, which completed last week.

We are very happy to say that we have appointed Vic Valentine as the new Scottish Trans Alliance Manager, starting from today. Vic was previously a Scottish Trans Alliance Policy Officer. Our recruitment panel, our Board and our staff team are confident that Vic will do a great job!
