Executive Director (part time)

Having made our televised BBC Proms debut with two concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in August 2024, Fantasia Orchestra is at an exceptionally exciting moment in its journey.

With project-based, multi-genre programming at the heart of its artistic life, Fantasia frequently collaborates with top international soloists and has developed a busy schedule at venues and festivals across the country.

At this seminal moment in our history, we are delighted to announce the newly-created role of Executive Director, and are looking for an outstanding person to join our team.

Working alongside the Artistic Director, you will have responsibility for steering and shaping the growth of this young, fresh, and nimble organisation. You will realise our artistic vision, and will lead Fantasia into the next stage of our remarkable story.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a visionary individual who would relish the chance to make their mark on one of the country’s newest and most exciting orchestras. We would love to hear from you!
