We’re looking to appoint a new Chair to lead our board into the next stage of
Multi-Story’s development.

We became a National Portfolio Organisation of Arts Council England this year. The new Chair will play a significant part in marking the next chapter for our orchestra. The role will be responsible for overseeing the company’s adaptation to becoming an NPO, and will support a step change in the depth and scope of our work.

This is an opportunity for someone with time and willingness to get practically involved in steering the work of an innovative orchestra. We are currently working through a review of our organisation's structure, vision and purpose to ensure our future sustainability. The new chair will play a guiding role throughout this process.

We are particularly interested to hear from you if you feel you are from a background that is currently underrepresented in orchestral music leadership.
