This is an exciting moment to join the Fringe Society as we enter a bold new chapter in our story. As we prepare to move into our new permanent home, Fringe Central, in 2026, we are growing in scale, ambition and impact; transforming the way we support artists, engage communities and deliver our mission year-round. The renovation of our new space is only the beginning; it marks the start of a long-term evolution in how we work, connect and create.
We’re looking for an exceptional Head of Business Services to help lead that transformation. As a key member of our Senior Management Team, you’ll ensure the organisation has the structure, resources and confidence to deliver on its vision. It’s a role that blends strategy with action; from driving financial resilience and operational excellence to shaping an inclusive, forward-looking culture. For someone who relishes building strong systems, empowering teams and making things happen, this is a unique opportunity to make a lasting difference at a defining moment in our journey.
The Development Manager plays a key role in securing and sustaining income from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society's diverse revenue streams, including the Fringe Friends scheme, corporate partnerships, trusts and foundations, individual giving, major donors, and legacies. Working closely with the Head of Fundraising and Development, this role combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery and line management responsibility for the Development Assistant.
