Board and Governors
Our Board is chaired by Nigel Hugill and is made up of around 15 non-salaried people, chosen for their skills and experience. They work closely with the RSC senior management team in leading and steering the company.
Board members are drawn from a wider group of Governors. Governors act as advocates on our behalf and come from a wide range of backgrounds. They meet at least once a year at the Company's AGM, chaired by the President.
The Prince of Wales is our President and Her Majesty the Queen is our Patron.
Our Artistic Director, Gregory Doran, and our Executive Director, Catherine Mallyon are responsible to our Board for the running of the RSC.
Associates
Gregory works closely with a team of Associates - directors, writers, actors and a designer - who help to determine our artistic policy and programming.
Steering Committee and Steering Group
Gregory and Catherine are supported by a group of senior managers who make up the Steering Committee and are responsible for developing and implementing our Strategic Plan. A much wider group of department heads also meet regularly as the Steering Group, managing our day to day operations and debating the key issues affecting the life of the company.
Company
Everyone at the RSC plays a part in creating our work and sharing it with our audiences. We employ a huge range of people including directors, writers, actors as well as other creative, technical and administrative staff.
