Centre Director, Tacchi-Morris Arts Centre

Tacchi-Morris Arts Centre is a thriving 250 seat theatre with several drama, dance and music studios – working in partnership with Heathfield Community School. We programme over 300 performances, events and workshops per annum, and 20 community classes per week plus a range of residencies and conferences.

Responsible for managing eight members of staff, a range of community tutors and a busy team of volunteers – the Director must be experienced in event management, programming, budget control and fundraising and enjoy working as part of a busy team.

The Centre Director is instrumental in ensuring sustainability, growth and development of the arts centre and curating a diverse programme that responds to the community within which we work. Key working relationships within this will be with the school and college – ensuring programming responds to the needs and interests of students and compliments their work. The Centre Director will demonstrate strong leadership and interpersonal skills, business and problem solving acumen, and the capacity to carefully balance programmes and creative community input. The core purpose of the Centre Director’s role is to provide a vibrant, creative, well managed and effective arts provision for the whole community within Taunton and beyond, ensuring that all visitors to the centre receive the best possible experience.
