join tHE board of THEATRE GU Leòr

Are you interested in Gaelic theatre? Would you like to support a professional company working all over Scotland?

Theatre Gu Leòr is seeking three new people to join our board and we are keen to hear from people who would like to join our team.

As well as official board members, we are also looking to appoint board observers. If you are interested in being on the board, but are not quite ready to become an official member, board observers will receive mentoring in board skills and legal responsibilities over the course of a year, with the opportunity then to apply for official board membership if they wish.

We are open to applications from anyone with a strong interest in the company, but we’re particularly keen to heard from:

-       Gaelic artists

-       People based in the Islands

-       People aged 16* to 30

-       People with skills in finance, fundraising, HR or law

The board meets four times per year, usually online. You can read more about our current board members here.

An induction pack will be given to new members, and they will be offered a training course in board skills also. Board observers will also receive specific mentoring and support, in addition to this.

If you are interested, or if you’d like speak to us about this opportunity, please don’t hesitate to be in touch. We’d be very happy to have an informal conversation and answer any questions, or to put you in touch with current members of the baord.

To apply, tell us about your skills and experience, and why you’d like to join the board - this can be in written form, or via video. Email this to:

Seona McClintock, Creative Director: seona@theatreguleor.com & Rhona Dougall, General Manager: rhona@theatreguleor.com.

Deadline for applications: Friday 1 November 2024.

*People aged 16/17 are welcome to join the board, though they will not bear all the same responsibilities as members aged 18+. This can be discussed during the recruitment process.
