A leading cultural organization in Scotland is seeking a Chief Executive to lead its ambitious future. The role requires proven leadership experience and a passion for the arts, as well as strong financial and strategic management capabilities. You will work closely with the board and staff to shape the Theatre's vision, ensuring its values are championed and financial stability is strengthened. This is an exciting opportunity to make a significant impact in the cultural sector.
Set in one of the most beautiful landscapes in the UK, Pitlochry Festival Theatre is a place of creativity, ambition and community. We’re entering a bold new chapter and investing in innovation, inclusion and artistic excellence. You’ll be joining a passionate, dedicated team—and you’ll help shape work that resonates with people of all ages and backgrounds.
Pitlochry Festival Theatre is partnering with executive search consultant Todd Heppenstall on this appointment.
To apply for the role of Chief Executive at Pitlochry Festival Theatre, please submit:
Location: Pitlochry, Scotland (flexible and hybrid working can be discussed)
Salary: £100,000
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Deadline: Friday 16 January 2026
This is an important moment for us. Following a major phase of redevelopment, record audience growth, and the appointment of Alan Cumming as Artistic Director, the Theatre is entering a new chapter of ambition and opportunity. We are proud of what has been achieved so far and clear about the work still ahead.
From our home in Highland Perthshire, we produce work that reaches far beyond Pitlochry. We are a national cultural organisation with a strong reputation for artistic excellence, community impact, and sector leadership. Our charity’s purpose – to improve lives by sharing Pitlochry with the world and the world with Pitlochry – continues to guide every part of what we do.
Our Chief Executive will play a central role in shaping the Theatre’s future. This means leading a skilled and committed team, working closely with our Board, strengthening our financial position, and building the partnerships that will sustain our work for years to come. It also means championing our values, supporting our people, and ensuring that our ambition is matched by resilience, clarity and care.
