Lighthouse is one of the largest regional arts centre in the UK and the leading cultural venue in Dorset, presenting a year-round programme of high quality and diverse arts and entertainment from national, international, and regional artists, providing the community with opportunities to engage in a broad range of arts activities and experiences from our home in Poole and the BCP (Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole) region. Primarily a receiving venue, our concert hall, theatre, studio, cinema and galleries enable us to present a huge range of work from all art forms and scale – from high profile artists to those starting out, from commercial promoters to small-scale funded artists and companies. We are home to the internationally acclaimed Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and several arts organisations who use our venue to deliver arts activities and cultural training. Lighthouse is a not-for-profit charitable trust and receives funding from Arts Council England as a National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) and from BCP Council to support its charitable aims. Lighthouse is committed to a diverse board that promotes equity, diversity and inclusion. We are seeking new board members to support the Chair and senior management team to drive our continuing success and fulfil our ambitions for the future. Whilst we welcome expressions of interest from all candidates, we are particularly keen to hear from applicants with significant experience at a senior level in: Finance Law Human Resources & People Commercial/Fundraising While experience of working in an arts venue is not a requirement, a passion for and active interest in the performing and visual arts is essential. Trustees undertake a non-executive, voluntary role, and a minimum term of three years’ commitment is required. In return, we provide a lively, friendly and interesting place to contribute to, a unique opportunity to help progress an ambitious organisation and of course opportunities to experience many wonderful performances.
