Chief Executive celebrates 10 years of service
It has now been 10 years since Chief Executive, Jamie Kirk, joined the Charity - then named United For All, prior to relaunching as Dundee United Community Trust in 2017. As the first employee of the Charity, Jamie has overseen a sustained period of growth and diversity as DUCT strives to improve the lives of people in Dundee.

Jamie had this to say about this milestone: “I’m really proud of what we have all achieved in the time I’ve been here, and I’m grateful to have been involved from the start. We’ve done a lot and been through a lot in the past 10 years and I’ve always been very lucky to have good people around me; from our Board of Trustees to our staff and volunteer team”
David Dorward, Chair of the DUCT Board of Trustees, added “I have had the honour and privilege of being the Chair of Dundee United Community Trust since its creation in 2017. Over those years the Community Trust has delivered a wide variety of services to the local community, and Jamie has been at the heart of all those services. Whenever the Club’s owner Mark Ogren is in Dundee he always wants to meet Jamie and hear about the wonderful things the Trust is doing in the Club’s name. The Board of Trustees recognise that with out Jamie’s input , the Trust would not be the success that it is today.”
