We are seeking new Trustees with a specialism in either Equality, Diversity and Inclusion or Finance to join our Board.
Awarded Theatre of the Year at The Stage Awards 2025 and the UK’s Most Welcoming Theatre by UK Theatre in 2023, Nottingham Playhouse is one of the country’s leading producing theatres. In addition to our ambitious productions, wide-ranging participation programmes and extensive artist development programme, we are also a registered charity. All of the funds we raise help to ensure we’re reaching as many people as possible to give them new opportunities and create lasting memories.
Nottingham Playhouse is governed by a Board of Trustees, whose expertise and care guide the decisions and actions of the organisation. The Board of Trustees meets 6 times a year in Nottingham, with occasional subgroup meetings. Trustees also attend press nights for each in-house production and other Nottingham Playhouse activities whenever possible.
To compliment the skills of our current Trustees, we are now seeking passionate and effective advocates for the arts with particular expertise in Equality, Diversity & Inclusion or Finance, to proactively support and contribute to the work of the Board.
This is an unpaid, non-executive role but reasonable expenses for attending Board meetings will be offered.
Nottingham Playhouse is committed to a policy of diversity and inclusion, and we welcome applications from potential Trustees who would help to broaden the diversity of our Board. You can be a Trustee provided you are aged 18 or over and training can be given if needed. We strive to be fully accessible and applications from disabled people are particularly welcome to balance our governance.
