Company Secretary

Mr Sands Youth Theatre is seeking a Secretary to join its committee.

Mr Sands Youth Theatre is a pioneering youth arts company led by
theatremakers Zita Monahan McGowan and Casey Hallahan. Since 2017 we
have gone from strength to strength as an engaging and artistically
visionary space in youth arts in Ireland.

We hold an open door policy and welcome young people from all
walks of life aged 12 to 17, with an aim to give them a world-class
experience in drama, as well as give them a space to be themselves, make
new friends, and discover their passions.

The young people have explored many different forms of
performance, including stage plays, immersive promenade work, audio
dramas, podcasts and short films. We have participated in The National
Theatre Connections (an international Youth Theatre festival) and The
Transmission, a Creative-Europe funded youth audio drama initiative.

Mr Sands Youth Theatre is supported by the Arts Council, Wicklow Arts Office, and the KWETB.

The responsibilities will include:

-Liaising with the Managing Director, Artistic Director, and Chair with regards to the running of the Youth Theatre

-Assisting the Directors where needed with the day-to-day administration, grant writing.

-Ensuring the charity is up to date with legal requirements and best practices

-Attending committee meetings via video call (roughly 4-5 meetings a year)

-Any other duties that may arise.
