Theatr na nÓg is looking to diversify its income and build financial resilience during a time of uncertainty for the company and the wider theatre industry.
The Business Development Consultant will work in a freelance capacity to create a feasibility study identifying opportunities for increasing income without impacting Theatr na nÓg’s core strategy and values. This may include reviewing our existing assets as well as identifying new opportunities for income generation. This role will not be responsible for programming our artistic output.
This role and subsequent feasibility study is funded by the UK Government through the Shared Prosperity Fund.
For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Rachel Fryer, General Manager, rachelfryer@theatr-nanog.co.uk

- To understand and work within Theatr na nÓg’s core values
- To liaise with the Artistic Director and General Manager to identify the organisation’s existing assets which may generate further income
- To identify other areas of potential income generation
- To prepare an interim update to be presented by the General Manager at the Board of Trustees meeting in July 2024
- To prepare a final feasibility report detailing short and long-term income generation and relevant cost-benefit analysis. The report must be prepared in both English and Welsh
- To present the final report at the Board of Trustees meeting in October 2024.
- To work with the Artistic Director and General Manager with the initial implementation of the proposals
