I’m a firm believer that people are what make an organisation and are a company’s most important asset, so I’m looking forward to working with all the teams who deliver our vibrant programme of work on and off our stages.”
Jon Gilchrist, Artistic Director and Chief Executive at Birmingham Hippodrome added: “This new role will play an integral part in driving forward the development of our brilliant teams whilst ensuring equality, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of all we do.
