You will be a clear thinker, an active listener, a good communicator, and are not afraid to speak your mind. You are responsible and committed and have the time to give. We will support your learning, and offer support and training where needed. We particularly welcome applications from people with experience of arts producing or events management; fundraising; marketing and communications; or HR.

We celebrate equity, diversity and inclusion, and actively encourage applications from people who bring backgrounds, experience and perspectives that are underrepresented in the arts and charity sectors. We are particularly keen to hear from people of African, Caribbean, Asian and global majority heritage, disabled people, and those who have experienced socio-economic disadvantage. Over two thirds of our trustees had never sat on a charity board before.

We hold Board meetings once a quarter in central Brighton, on a Thursday evening, and we organise an annual Away Day. Trustees often have actions to work on between meetings. We also hold launch events, and would expect you to attend at least one of these a year.
