Application Deadline: Sunday 28 September 2025.

As part of The Basketmakers’ Association’s 50th Anniversary Celebrations a Strategic Review was recently carried out, which has resulted in us publishing our new 2025 Position Statement, which you can read here:  https://basketmakersassociation.org.uk/2025/06/12/ba-position-statement-2025/

  3. Legal and Compliance Director – 
A champion of good governance, equity, and accountability to ensure legal and ethical best practice.
  4. Marketing and IT Director

  5. Community and Volunteer Director –

We have also published a general recruitment advert that covers all five roles, which can be found here – https://basketmakersassociation.org.uk/2025/08/13/join-the-strategic-board-of-the-basketmakers-association
