Heather MacLeod (b 10 March 1959) was the managing director of the think tank (defunct as of February 2010), Social Justice Scotland.[1]
In February 2010 she was appointed director of the Social Justice Foundation (see Directorships and other positions, below).
As at February 2010 she was standing as the Conservative candidate for Glasgow South West for the 2010 Westminster election.[2] On Monday 15 March 2010 MacLeod reported to Spinprofiles that she had stepped down as the Conservative candidate for the 2010 Westminster election.[3]
The following is from her biography on the Scottish Conservatives website:
- In May, 2007 she stood as the Conservative candidate in the Scottish Parliamentary elections for Glasgow Maryhill.
- In 2007 Heather co-founded the Glasgow Business Initiative. Working with Bill Aitken MSP and with David Mundell’s Westminster Office, the Glasgow Business Initiative (GBI) aims to allow Scottish businesses to engage with Conservative thinking in an informal, non-political environment. Heather very much hopes that businesses large and small within Glasgow South West will find GBI meetings a useful forum for generating a strong business culture throughout Scotland.[4]
In January 2008 she was appointed the director of pharmaceutical company GM Clinical Ltd.[5] In March 2010 MacLeod informed SpinProfiles editors that this company has been non-trading since she became involved in SJS and then SJF.[6]

Heather MacLeod made the following statement to SpinProfiles on the history of dissolved companies:
- I have liquidated 3 companies (which were interconnected) and closed down some dormant ones which we had set up for projects which never progressed. I have personally given an undertaking to repay creditors and have done so at considerable personal cost to myself (even though the debts were from a Limited Company and there was more than one Director) and would wish to continue to do so until all creditors paid.[12]
