We are pleased to announce that our Equestrian Facilities Manager, Rachael Robertson, will be joining SRUC in April 2022.

Rachael currently works at the Weipers Centre Equine Hospital, part of the Glasgow University Vet School and in addition to her expertise in horse care and welfare, she brings significant business development, management and marketing experience.

The equestrian facilities manager role is a new position at Oatridge and Rachael will take overall responsibility for the direction and leadership of both the Scottish National Equestrian Centre and the Oatridge stables, and her appointment is part of our strategy to enhance our external cooperation for the benefit of the Scottish equestrian sector as well as maximise the benefits to our students.

Reacting to her appointment, Rachael said “I am delighted to be joining the team at SRUC. Oatridge already boasts fantastic facilities and education opportunities and I’m eager to pursue this exciting development. With the right partnerships the facilities will become Scotland’s epicentre of equine education, training and competition.”
