Job Summary

Cambridge Handel Opera Company (CHOC) are looking to appoint three new trustees to join our Board of Trustees from 1 September 2025 to help strengthen and grow the charity as we move into our new chapter.

Job Description

We are looking for individuals to join our Board who are passionate, energetic, and enthusiastic, with a willingness to commit time to a vibrant arts charity, as we move into a new phase of our development.

These are UK-based, unpaid, voluntary opportunities for someone to make a real impact in supporting and shaping the strategic development of an historic arts organisation.

Previous governance experience is not required, and we particularly welcome applications from backgrounds which are currently under-represented in UK opera companies.

Job Requirements

We are particularly interested in candidates with:

  • Experience in fundraising in the arts sector
  • Connections in the classical music industry
  • A passion for working in education
  • Knowledge of charity governance

Candidates should be willing to commit to an initial term of four years.

If you would like to apply to become a trustee of CHOC, please send your CV and a covering letter to Ruth Kiang by 17:00 on Friday 18 July, at [email protected].
