It is an exciting time to be joining Bradford Arts Centre. You will provide excellent customer service to the visitors and customers of Bradford Arts Centre and play a key role in the day to day running of the venue, supporting staff to ensure meetings and events run smoothly. They are looking for someone who is proactive and confident in taking the initiative and managing multiple tasks and timelines. You will be a strong team player with excellent interpersonal skills.

Common/Wealth are seeking an experienced, dynamic Communications & Campaigns Manager (0.6) who will help them tell their story, shape public-facing communications, and lead on advocacy.

This is an exciting opportunity for a communications specialist who shares their passion for countering injustice, especially for working-class people.

Seeking an inaugural Chair of Trustees to lead the formation and governance of the theatre's first Board.

Founded in Leeds in 2012, DeNada creates bold, narrative dance that celebrates and champions LGBTQ+ and Hispanic/Latinx identities.

The Chair will provide strategic leadership and governance, working closely with the Artistic Director to guide the company through it's next phase of development. The role involves attending four Board meetings per year (two in person, two online), alongside preparation of Board papers, regular contact with the team and occasional attendance at performances and events. This is a voluntary role, with reasonable travel and access expenses reimbursed.

This opportunity may suit someone with a strong commitment to supporting LGBTQ+ communities and/or a connection to Hispanic or Latinx culture, whether through heritage or lived experience. You do not, however, have to identify with either group: they welcome allies, friends, and people with a will to learn and share.

Prior experience as a Chair is welcomed but not required.

On Thu 30 April, Studio Productions @ Bingley Little Theatre will be hosting its first Theatre in the Bar, an evening with an eclectic mix of drama, spoken word and entertainment.

A callout is open for 5-minute pieces of self-produced material: drama (monologues/duologues), original songs, poetry and stand-up comedy. Material must be suitable for adult audiences and on the loose theme of 'arrival'.

Exhibitors and stallholders are invited to showcase their work at the Conference – submissions especially encouraged from creatives working with heritage, tradition, folklore, and cultural craft across all cultures.

If your work reflects your culture, uses traditional or hand techniques (spinning, weaving, craft, heritage methods), this is a great opportunity to share your story and practice with an international audience.
