REBECCA HOLT is set to become Eden Court Highlands next Chief Executive.

Currently Executive Director and Deputy Chief Executive of Battersea Arts Centre (BAC), Holt will join the Inverness arts venue in January.

She replaces JAMES MACKENZIE-BLACKMAN, who is stepping down to join Theatre Royal Plymouth.

"I’m thrilled to be joining Eden Court, an organisation I have admired from afar for some time," Holt said.

"Eden Court’s strong civic role in bringing creativity to communities across the Highlands, coupled with its artistic ambition across theatre and film, make it a truly special organisation."

Holt worked with BAC for over a decade. Artistic Director and Chief Executive Tarek Iskander said: "Rebecca brilliantly led the organisation through multiple challenges including the Grand Hall fire and the pandemic. We will really miss her, but are also excited to see the great heights Eden Court will reach during her tenure."
