We are looking for an experienced and dynamic leader to expand our fundraising strategy into the future.

The successful candidate will be an inspirational leader, able to create and deliver fundraising strategy at all levels using the unique opportunities offered by an artistic organisation and theatre producing house. We want Theatr Clwyd to have long-lasting and meaningful relationships with funders (both from the corporate and charity sectors) and to be at the forefront of building a fundraising relationship with our community.
