Accidental’s theatre is a collision of perspectives, art forms and unusual collaborations – curious stories told through vibrant, ambitious performances.
A theatre company based in Belfast, Accidental work with playwrights, actors, filmmakers, DJs, choreographers, musicians, poets, painters, technicians and curators to craft plays for Ireland and the world stage. Every production is a fresh invention and each play’s architecture is defined by the artists with whom it is built.
The Board at Accidental are looking for new members to join the team, initially on an interim basis. Expressions of interest by applicants from any professional background will be considered, but we particularly welcome those from with skills and experience in: strategic planning, finance & accounting, marketing & PR or fundraising. We're looking for people who have a passion for the arts, and who will drive the organisation forward in light of the difficult economic climate. Most importantly someone who will embrace Accidental’s contemporary ambition to walk the tightrope between the unexpected and the impossible. We're open to a diverse range of skills and will value the personal and professional experience you may have to offer.
The new board members will be required to attend at least four, two hour board meetings per year, held in Belfast city centre, and to act as an ambassador and champion for the company by supporting Accidental events and initiatives. Beyond this the time that you give can be as little or as much as you like.
Thank you for taking your time to apply and we look forward to hearing from you.
