Chief Executive Officer - The Media Centre

The Media Centre is one of the UK’s most innovative clusters of creative, digital and media businesses, located in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire.

They are looking to appoint a Chief Executive Officer to succeed Brent Woods, who will be leaving The Media Centre after twelve successful years in the post. The new CEO will lead a small but talented team and be an agent for change leading the implementation of the organisation’s strategic plan. This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious leader from the commercial or non-profit sectors to elevate this highly successful organisation to the next level.

They want someone who can develop what it means to create connections between people that enable learning, inspiration and growth; who understands how the mix of physical and online spaces can bring businesses and communities together; who understands the need to provide the highest quality services and to go on thinking ‘what next?’ Someone who values team contributions and creates opportunities; and believes in the combined importance of local presence and national profile, and is open to exploration and experimentation.

Your assets will be 170 inspiring clients, 30,000 square feet of creative workspace, high-end connectivity; imaginative partners; and a highly skilled and experienced team.

They are committed to building a genuinely diverse workforce at The Media Centre. If you share their commitment to this, have the skills and leadership qualities they seek and are excited by their vision, they would love to hear from you.
