APPOINTMENT OF NEW BOARD MEMBERS
Theatr Brycheiniog is a registered charity and the primary performing arts provider in Powys hosting an ambitious programme of professional and community work. Under the direction of our new Theatre Director we are embarking on an exciting new phase of development which will include a significant refurbishment programme and investment in a number of new areas of our work.
Opened in April 1997, as the first wholly funded Lottery new build arts organisation in Britain, Theatr Brycheiniog houses a 477 seat auditorium, café & bar, gallery and rehearsal studio and will celebrate its 25th Anniversary in 2022.
The organisation has undertaken a review of its governance and now has a new rotation of serving Board Members, we will need to keep undertaking a recruitment drive more frequently, and likely to be undertaken on an annual basis, and therefore will need to maintain contact throughout the year with individuals who are interested in becoming potential candidates, as we need to underpin the new terms of office. We are therefore asking that interested individuals make themselves known to us, and at this time we would be particularly interested to hear from those whose skills and backgrounds lie in:
The arts and artistic programming, access, diversity and inclusivity, building and facilities management systems finance and legal issues, community outreach and engagement.
Theatr Brycheiniog is keen to expand our provision of work in the welsh language, and therefore we would especially like to hear from those interested who are Welsh speakers and learners.
Good business networks are also valued, though these are not exclusive requirements and should not deter those who feel they have something to offer. As well as contributing their time and expertise, Board members act as ambassadors in the wider community of Powys, as well as regionally and nationally. We are looking to appoint committed individuals who will be able to contribute to the sustainable success of our organisation.
Board Member roles are unpaid voluntary positions. Travel expenses can be arranged.
