Artichoke Trust has named MA’AYAN PLANE its new Director of Development, replacing LIZ MCCARTHY, who is leaving to become Director of Development at Chichester Festival Theatre.
Plane was previously Artichoke’s Deputy Director of Development. She first joined Artichoke in 2010 and subsequently held roles at the Institute of Contemporary Arts and Children & the Arts before returning to Artichoke in 2017.
“I’m really happy to be taking up the role at this time with so many exciting projects under development," Plane said.
Knowing Artichoke as well as I do, I’m ready to start work on reaching the ambitious fundraising targets as well as be a part of the senior leadership team.”
HELEN MARRIAGE, Artichoke CEO, said: “We’re really sad to see Liz go, but certain that she’ll be a huge asset to Chichester Festival Theatre as she has been to Artichoke.
"Ma’ayan has been an incredible Deputy Director of Development over the past five years, and we’re delighted that she’s agreed to step up to lead the fundraising team."
