This role will be responsible for the financial sustainability, business plan and overall management of the charity with the goal of bringing the strategic development of the company in line with our new Arts Council NPO status.
As part of the senior management team, you will be able to think strategically about the future of the venue and will work with the board to deliver an ambitious and financially robust business plan. You will be an inspirational leader with the ability to develop and maintain key external relationships. You will develop and implement an organisational culture and management structure that deliver the conditions for Blackfriars Arts Centre’s vision to thrive.

We are actively seeking candidates who reflect the wide range of cultures and experiences in Lincolnshire, and we're keen to hear from applicants who live locally or have a connection to the local area.
We are interested in hearing from people with transferable skills who have great potential and can pick things up quickly. Often qualities are just as important as experience and we are interested in someone who has:
Enthusiasm about the arts and creativity, particularly in a venue responding to its neighbourhood
Strong leadership skills with the ability to inspire confidence and motivate people with clarity and kindness
High level of numeracy skills
High level of accuracy and ability to proof own work
