Head of Marketing
We are looking to recruit a talented and passionate Head of Marketing to join our Senior Management Team and to lead the Marketing and Box Office departments. The Head of Marketing will play a key role in the development and delivery of the company’s marketing, audience engagement and communication strategies, as well as leading on all programme campaigns. The role holder will also work closely with the Joint Chief Executives on the delivery of a consistent and appropriate external message.
Whilst your experience and expertise will be important in this role, what is every bit as important to us is your belief in our vision and purpose and your enthusiasm for a collaborative approach to building relationships and growing audiences.
This a full-time, permanent contract based in Scarborough although we are very open to conversations about hybrid and flexible ways of working. We are committed to a policy of inclusivity and diversity and welcome applications from those underrepresented in the cultural sector. We will work with candidates to ensure their access needs are met during the recruitment process and will ensure that access requirements are not a factor in our decision making.
For more information please contact Millie Deighton on [email protected] with “Head of Marketing” in the subject line.
Deadline for applications: 16 January 2026
First interviews to be held: 22 January 2026
Head of Workshop and Stage
We're looking to recruit a skilled Head of Workshop and Stage to join our busy Production team. The role is responsible for the successful realisation of scenic elements for our in-house produced work, specifically the construction, installation and maintenance of set, props and staging.
We are looking for a skilled craftsperson with experience within a mostly timber based workshop and with a wide knowledge of joinery techniques and construction. Whilst previous experience in a similar role in a theatre is not essential, a willingness to work collaboratively as part of a small team and to take a proactive role in problem solving are.
This a one-year, fixed term contract based in Scarborough although we very much hope that we will be able to extend it into a permanent role, should this initial period prove successful.
We are committed to a policy of inclusivity and diversity and welcome applications from those underrepresented in the cultural sector. We will work with candidates to ensure their access needs are met during the recruitment process and will ensure that access requirements are not a factor in our decision making.
For more information please contact Simon Bedwell on [email protected] with “Head of Workshop and Stage” in the subject line.
Deadline for applications: 9am on Friday 19 December 2025
