Would you like to join the BAFA board?

BAFA is seeking to augment our existing committed Board of Trustees by recruiting enthusiastic and knowledgeable individuals with experience and expertise in one or more of the following areas:

  • Arts and cultural policy
  • Advocacy and campaigning
  • Network and alliance development
  • Governance

In addition, we are particularly interested in recruiting Trustees with relevant skills and experience to contribute to our Environmental Sustainability and Equity, Diversity and Inclusion subgroups, and with knowledge of the literature festival sector.  We welcome applications from candidates who bring a working understanding of festivals, but a current role within festivals is not essential.

Board meetings are held remotely 5 times a year, and applications are invited from across the UK. The closing date for applications is 28 October 2024.

For more information please contact: Sharon Canavar (BAFA Co-Chair) at Harrogate International Festivals – sharon@harrogate-festival.org.uk or download the application pack below:
