Jobs Chair of the Board
Job Description
Cast is looking for an experienced, senior leader to serve as our Board Chair Designate.
Following the appointment of our Director, James Blakey, Cast is entering an exciting phase of strategic review and preparation for our next five-year business plan (2027–2032).
As Chair, you will maintain the highest standards of governance, line-manage the Director, and help steer our vibrant, inclusion-driven theatre. Working alongside our parent charity, Doncaster Culture and Leisure Trust (DCLT), and key strategic partners, you will champion Cast’s mission to enrich lives through the transformative power of the arts.
We welcome senior leaders from any professional background or sector with strategic leadership experience, strong data and financial literacy, and a commitment to equity, diversity, and environmental responsibility. Previous board or trustee experience in a charity or cultural setting is welcome, but not essential—what matters most is your alignment with our values and your drive to make a difference in Doncaster.
We particularly encourage applications from individuals under-represented in senior roles within arts and cultural organisations.
