We are seeking two new trustees to join our board.

Would you like to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of one of the UK’s most creative new music producers?

It's an exciting time to join Sound UK’s friendly and inspiring board as we enter an ambitious new phase to deliver our vision:

To be the UK’s leading producer of new music, bringing artists and the public together to experience extraordinary musical encounters.

For this recruitment round we are looking for two Trustees who can bring insights from a broad range of experience and backgrounds. Especially if you have knowledge of one of the following:

Fundraising

• Creative digital projects / technology

Community or youth work

We want to hear from you whether this would be a first Trustee role, or you already have experience. We value fresh perspectives and new ideas as well as experience.

For more detailed information, download our Trustee Recruitment Pack here.

Sound UK wants to ensure a diverse Board so that our artists and audiences benefit from diversity of knowledge, skills, experience and background. We are particularly looking to recruit people of colour, who are LGBTQIA+, disabled, under 30 and/or from lower socioeconomic backgrounds.

You don’t have to have been a Trustee before to apply. If you have the skills, knowledge and experience we need, we will support you through training and mentorship if needed. We know it can be daunting joining a board on your own, even a friendly one like ours, so that’s why we’re currently recruiting two new Trustee roles.

If you’d like to have an informal chat, we’d be delighted to talk to you. Email maija@sounduk.net.

How to apply

To apply please submit one of the following formats to maija@sounduk.net putting Trustee Application in the subject line.

A written CV and a short explanation of what you would bring to the Board and how you match the role description.

A video file sent via WeTransfer or YouTube / Vimeo with a short explanation of what you would bring to the Board and how you match the role description.

An audio sound file with a short explanation of what you would bring to the Board and how you match the role description.

If there is anything we can do to make the recruitment process more accessible or inclusive for you, please contact maija@sounduk.net.

Deadline for expressions of interest: 17 November 2022.

We look forward to hearing from you.
