Specifically, they are also eager to connect with people with the following competence:
• Finance or Accounting
• Human Resources or Recruitment

They are also interested in hearing from people within the creative sector with a background in theatre, music, or visual art.
About Aberdeen Arts Centre
Established in 1942 by the innovative speech therapist Catherine Hollingworth OBE, Aberdeen Children’s Theatre was launched at 31 King Street, Aberdeen.
This pioneering venue was the first theatre of its kind in the UK, offering children a unique space to express their creativity, free from the constraints of supervision and instruction by teachers and parents.
Aberdeen Arts Centre is now in its 61st year of operating from 31-33 King Street. Sector funding remains precarious, and its focus is on growth and enhancing resilience; financially, artistically, and as a centre for performing arts.
