Chair of the Board of Trustees

Chair of Board of Trustees

 The RWA (Royal West of England Academy) in Bristol is seeking an exceptional individual to become non-executive Chair.

An entirely independent charity (1070163), the RWA has recently undertaken a transformational capital project, opening up its exhibitions and outreach programme to new audiences, and providing creative inspiration to some of Bristol’s most under-served individuals and communities.

Leading the RWA governing body, the new Chair will be responsible for all aspects of good governance and propriety and will importantly take a lead role in furthering the RWA’s ambitious programme delivering creativity for all while ensuring financial resilience and sustainability.

Ideally suited to an individual with a wide experience of business and institutional leadership, this role requires an interest in arts or cultural involvement.

For further information on the RWA, email the Director, alison.bevan@RWA.org.uk

We invite expressions of interest by 31 October 2023
