Jon Turner
Chief Executive Officer
Link Group Scotland
Jon was appointed Chief Executive of Link Group in January 2019.
Link is a group of award-winning social enterprises, serving customers across all regions of Scotland, having an annual turnover of over £100m and 900 staff. The organisation has grown through the building of new homes, the merger of associations, as well as through expanding the range of commercial services it provides with the profits recycled into the social investment arm of the business.
Whilst the group of companies is a large one in some respects, it remains anchored in providing local communities with the services and facilities they need to thrive.
Jon has extensive housing experience in both Scotland and wider in the UK having held roles ranging from financial advisory services, through to bank debt lending and equity investments. Jon has also worked with a number of central and local government bodies who have been involved in large scale transformative infrastructure programmes.
Jon is responsible for leading the delivery of Link’s strategic vision – to deliver sustainable communities across Scotland.
