Advisory Board Member 
Voluntary 
Closing date for applications: Tuesday 6 January

We are seeking new members of our Advisory Board who can support us with their personal/professional experience, networks and influence to help shape the future of the cultural offer of Gloucestershire Libraries supported and funded by Arts Council England.   

Since becoming an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) in 2023, Gloucestershire Libraries has been on an ambitious journey to transform library spaces into vibrant, creative hubs for everyone.  

Rooted in local need and driven by community voices, our work champions innovation, inclusion and imagination. Through bold partnerships, dynamic programming, and a strong focus on priority places and under-served groups, we’re re-imagining what libraries can be - spaces where creativity, connection and communities thrive. The projects and activities that sit under our NPO are delivered in addition to core Library services, which are still delivered in our Libraries. 

The Arts Council have committed to funding Gloucestershire Libraries as an NPO until 2028. 

The board has been established since 2023 with some very skilled members who sit on the committee. We have audited the skills and identified areas that would strengthen the Advisory Board. The key aspects we will be seeking are Project Management, HR, Finance, Income and marketing/communications. We are seeking to recruit multiple vacant positions.
