Papertrail is recruiting new trustees to be a part of shaping its future in theatre and untold stories in Wales.
We dig out untold stories and present them to audiences in engaging ways. Each production blends distinctive writing with adventurous staging, and involves working alongside communities in the creation of the work. Our process is driven by curiosity. We want to get to know the people in a particular place and find the story that needs to be listened to.
We are really keen to hear from:
- people who are passionate about arts, culture and Welsh language
- adhere to inclusivity and equality
- those with professional employment experience
- volunteering experience
- diverse lived experiences
Professional and Volunteer Experience
We are keen to hear from people with professional and volunteer experience who have the following skills:
- Financial
- Human Resources and Governance
- Legal
- Fundraising
While experience within the arts, charitable or public sectors is beneficial, Papertrail also welcomes individuals who bring valuable insight from other backgrounds.
Addressing inequality in the Arts.
Our work engages with a wide and diverse range of people and we want our Board to reflect this. It is our aim to enable more people from under-represented communities to have their voice heard.
We want to address structural inequality and are particularly keen to receive applications from people who are underrepresented in the arts sector, and from those who experience discrimination due to race, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, race, religion, nationality, ethnic origin, disability or age.
Information about the role of trustees, job descriptions and what to expect from the volunteer unpaid role can be found on the Papertrail website.
