Kent, South East England, United Kingdom THE MARLOWE THEATRE Full time

The Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury is one of the UK’s most successful large-scale regional theatres (UK Theatre of the Year in the Stage Awards 2022). Our mission is to be the engine house for the performing arts in Kent, shaping the spirit of our region.

We bring West End musicals, national companies, a symphony orchestra season and high-profile tours to Kent audiences, in a year-round programme of theatre, dance, opera, music and comedy in our 1,200-seat main house. Next year we begin producing large-scale plays made in Kent and touring nationally. Our 150-seat Studio is dedicated to the development of new ideas, with a mix of R&D with resident and visiting companies, sharings and presented shows, plus a home-produced family show at Christmas.

The Director of Development (Maternity Cover) is a senior position at the Marlowe Theatre, leading the organisation’s fundraising.

This 12-month maternity cover position provides an opportunity to lead a high performing department, develop skills and expertise and play your part in supporting the work of one of the country’s most successful regional theatres.

You will be working from a solid footing, leading the team to build on existing partnerships and developing a pipeline of new opportunities. We are looking for a strong relationship builder who can work across both revenue and capital fundraising ambitions. Our revenue programme is strong with increasing support from individuals and opportunity to grow our business support along with our Trusts and Foundations work. With initial support already in place from the National Lottery Heritage Fund for our capital programme, you will be working with a strong team and a growing capital campaign board.

We are a fast-growing organisation, and we are looking for a leader who will join our Strategic Management Team to help us drive the organisation forwards, finding new ways of working and embracing change.

We want to work with people who are passionate about their work, resilient in the face of any challenge that comes their way and supportive of their colleagues.
