Peer Productions are looking for a dynamic and ambitious Chairperson to join their pioneering charity as they grow from a successful local charity into an organisation with a national profile and international reach.
They are looking for a Chairperson to guide the charity as they continue to reach more young people and change more young lives. They are the only organisation of their kind that specialises in delivering high-quality theatre productions performed by specially trained young actors/peer educators.
Their Chairperson needs to be able to advocate for the organisation to external stakeholders, funders and patrons. The ideal candidate will appreciate that Peer Productions is an organisation that needs to remain fluid to react to both the changing needs of vulnerable young people and also to respond to new opportunities as they arise. They will have a strong understanding of risk management and organisation development. They will be joining a strong board but with room for development. They will have a varied skill set that includes finance, law, building, HR, charity governance, education and the arts. Peer Productions plan to recruit additional trustees with skills that are currently under-represented. Since the appointment of Managing Director Ed Simpson eighteen months ago, the organisation has undergone significant development laying the groundwork to enable movement from being a successful small-scale, local charity towards becoming a middle-scale charity with an emerging national profile and international reach.
