THE TOURING NETWORK - Key Persons
I ensure the team, board and organisation have everything they need to support the membership. I join the dots between the network and the wider sector, driving the strategic direction and aligning values and goals.
I have a background in project, marketing and business management, with 10 years in arts and culture. I worked in artist development and label management - leading Frightened Rabbit and Kathryn Josephs' debut and critically-acclaimed albums - before joining the team in 2017.
I'm passionate about ensuring our members' voices are heard and seeing that live performance in the region is encouraged and fairly supported.
Job Titles:
- Administrative Producer at Vanishing Point Theatre
Job Titles:
- Network Development Manager
I'm responsible for supporting our members to ensure they get the most out of this community. I believe the core strength of any network comes from good communication and a willingness to share experiences, insights, and resources. I'm here to help make that process as simple and enjoyable as possible!
I've worked in arts venues for more of my life than I haven't. I started in theatres in Northern England, managed thousand-seater concert halls in Edinburgh, ran international film festivals in Glasgow, and organised for touring shows to come to Oban, which is now home.
Job Titles:
- Membership Officer ( Currently on Maternity Leave )
I'm usually your first point of contact when you get in touch with The Touring Network. I oversee the office emails and provide support to the rest of the team.
I have a background in the arts, culture and heritage industries. Over the past 10 years I've worked in administration, communication and information management for organisations like Artlink Edinburgh, Glasgow Caledonian University, MAP and Glasgow School of Art.
This is my first role with a performing arts focus. I'm looking forward to gaining a deeper insight into the sector, and the triumphs and challenges that face promoters, performers and venues in rural Scotland.
We are always on the look out for additional associates and board members to join our team. If you would like to be considered, please get in touch.

Job Titles:
- Communications & Engagement Manager
Stories are at the heart of everything I do. I share the work of the network with the wider world, connecting people, gathering insights, and supporting our members to promote themselves as best they can.
I've led communications for arts organisations across the UK, in rural and urban settings, in-house and touring, and I've worked on many more shows, festivals and publications as a freelancer.
I'm passionate about rural touring and celebrating the people who make it happen. I'm here to shine a light on creative communities in the highlands and islands, and to visit lots more of them along the way!
