The trustees will provide strategic leadership, financial oversight, human‑resources guidance, recruitment and retention support, community partnership development, and artistic/creative direction. No prior trustee experience is required; NYO welcomes first‑time trustees alongside experienced board members and will provide induction and ongoing support. The role is a three‑year renewable appointment, involving approximately six board meetings per year, preparation work, and occasional attendance at concerts and events. Applicants should have experience or a strong interest in finance, HR, recruitment, community partnerships, or artistic development. The position is unpaid, though reasonable expenses may be reimbursed.

Applications are accepted immediately and must be received by 7 September 2026. Interviews are scheduled for the autumn term 2026. This volunteer board role offers the chance to influence the strategic direction of a respected youth orchestra, develop governance skills, and contribute to the cultural life of the Midlands.
