More Details

If you love building meaningful partnerships and you are energised by the power of the arts to change lives, this role offers the perfect platform to develop your skills, your network, and your career.   This role drives the theatre’s sustainability and impact by securing vital financial support from charitable trusts and corporate partners. You’ll lead on achieving an annual income target, cultivate strong and lasting relationships with funders, and developing persuasive proposals and reports that bring artistic and community ambitions to life. You’ll inherit a portfolio of loyal relationships ensuring each partner feels inspired, valued, and connected to our mission.
