What we are looking for
We’re looking for an enthusiastic and collaborative Managing Director to lead Brighton Fringe into its next chapter. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives in a creative, fast-paced environment and is passionate about supporting artists, venues, and audiences. While experience in festivals or the charity sector would be a real advantage, we warmly welcome applicants from all backgrounds who can bring fresh perspectives, strong leadership and a commitment to our values.
