Description
Lead a bold new chapter for culture in the heart of Wales.
Theatr Brycheiniog, nestled in the spectacular landscape of the Bannau Brycheiniog / Brecon Beacons in Mid Wales, is looking for an exceptional leader — someone with vision, resilience and commercial drive — to help shape the next chapter in the organisation's transformation.
This is a rare opportunity to lead a much-loved cultural institution into a vibrant and sustainable future; one where creativity thrives, people connect, and where the arts and culture play a vital role in the lives of our communities.
Strong foundations have been laid:
• A £2 million capital upgrade has revitalised the venue.
• A new 25-year lease secures the organisation's place in the heart of the community.
• The Interim Director has streamlined the structure, strengthened programming, and opened new income streams.
Now, Theatr Brycheiniog is ready to take the next step — and they are looking for someone to lead that charge; someone who can turn vision into action, who’s ready to reimagine what a theatre can be, not just as a venue, but a creative hub, a civic space, and a cultural home for all.
The successful applicant will bring:
• Established leadership record with resilience and strategic vision
• Extensive senior-level experience within the arts or charitable sector
• Strong financial acumen and a track record of successful fundraising
• Entrepreneurial mindset with drive and creative energy
• Proven ability to lead innovation and inspire transformative change
• A commitment to team empowerment, development, and organisational growth
• Demonstrated success in delivering meaningful change within the arts or charity landscape
• A passionate advocate for the arts and their power to enrich and transform lives
Theatr Brycheiniog is committed to building a diverse and inclusive organisation. They welcome applications from people with lived experiences of disability and neurodiversity, socio-economically marginalised communities and from the global majority.
If you're a bold, imaginative and driven leader looking to make a real impact - and do it all in one of the most beautiful places in the UK - Theatr Brycheiniog would love to hear from you.
