Dunedin Canmore has selected Hazel Young as the Association's new Managing Director.

With a career spanning more than 20 years, Ms Young will succeed Chief Executive Ewan Fraser, who will retire at the end of the year.

Ms Young was previously Housing and Customer Service Director at Dunedin Canmore, which is part of Wheatley Group.

In addition, she has worked in several senior management roles in the Group since 2008, including Director of Policy and Service Development at Wheatley and South Area Housing Director at Glasgow Housing Association.


Speaking on her appointment, Ms Young said: "These are exciting times for Dunedin Canmore. Just last week, we unveiled our massive new £110 million investment programme, which will see us build 700 new homes over the next five years and invest heavily in upgrading our existing homes."

Dunedin Canmore Chair, Thomas Mitchell, added: "Hazel has worked with Dunedin Canmore for the past year and demonstrated that she is an excellent leader, who will continue to drive up standards and make the homes, lives and communities of our tenants better.

"We are delighted to welcome Hazel as our Managing Director and for her to continue to deliver on the achievements of Dunedin Canmore to date."
