Anvil Arts is an independent charitable trust, and the largest performing arts organisation in Hampshire. We operate three fantastic cultural venues in Basingstoke, including The Anvil (1,400-seat), which is renowned as one of the top 5 concert halls in country. Within the same building is The Forge – an intimate 95-seat studio theatre, and in the heart of the town centre is The Haymarket, a 400-seat theatre set within a Grade II listed building.

Anvil Arts creates a year-round programme encompassing the best in music, performance, cultural education, arts participation, and outreach work. Since opening in 1994, we have sold over 5,000,000 tickets and brought audiences to Basingstoke from as far afield as Argentina, Iceland, Canada, and Japan.

We are now seeking to appoint a Deputy Chief Executive, a new post in the Executive Leadership Team, reporting to the Chief Executive.
