Using music to transform people’s lives, to bring communities together and enhance daily life

Pure Executive is delighted to be supporting Britten Pears Arts in the appointment of a new Chief Financial Officer due to the retirement of the current CFO this summer.

Britten Pears Arts is a pioneering music, arts and heritage charity based on the Suffolk coast at two popular, historic visitor destinations: Snape Maltings and The Red House. It emerged from the creative partnership between the composer Benjamin Britten and his professional and personal partner, singer Peter Pears.

In 2020, the two charities which formed the legacy of Britten and Pears’ life and work, Snape Maltings (formerly Aldeburgh Music) and Britten-Pears Foundation, merged to become Britten Pears Arts.

Britten and Pears shared a progressive vision for music and the arts to be useful, transforming lives, and bringing people and communities together. Our founders’ vision inspires all our activities: from work with our local communities to our national leadership roles in the fields of programming, talent development and music for health & wellbeing.
