Jobs and Opportunities

Firstsite is one of the UK’s most distinctive contemporary art galleries. Based in Colchester – Britain’s first capital – we work with leading artists to explore the most important questions of our time while remaining deeply rooted in our local communities.

We are now seeking to appoint up to four new Trustees to join our Board at a pivotal moment in the organisation’s evolution.

Over the next 3-6 years, Firstsite will strengthen its national profile, develop new partnerships and funding models, and build long‑term organisational resilience. We are looking for exceptional individuals who can help us navigate this next phase with intelligence, creativity, and confidence.

We welcome applications from people with a wide range of backgrounds and experience. We are particularly interested in individuals who bring one or more of the following:

Commercial or entrepreneurial experience 

Digital, technology, or innovation leadership 

National or international cultural sector experience 

Property, capital, or infrastructure expertise 

You do not need prior trustee experience.

We are committed to building a diverse Board and strongly encourage applications from individuals currently under‑represented in the cultural sector.

This voluntary role offers a rare opportunity to contribute to the future of a nationally significant cultural organisation.
