Following a period of challenge, the board of trustees recruited a new Executive Director and Senior Leadership Team in 2022/23 to deliver a transformation project that would deliver a more stable and future-thinking organisation. A 2023-2028 business plan is in place and significant work has already improved operations, facilities, and programmes. A membership community of over 30,000 members is now in place, and our volunteer community is growing rapidly.
A successful application to the Heritage Fund has paved the way for a two-year project titled ‘Towards Bowes 2092’. This project covers five interlinked investment strands that are vital to the future sustainability of the organisation. This role will oversee the project plan and work streams, and coordinate the day-to day-to-day activities in the project, supported by a project administrator and reporting to the Director of Partnerships and Engagement.
