David Jubb
co-director
My name is David Jubb, my pronouns are he/him. I am white skinned with a stubbly beard and I often wear a stingy brimmed trilby hat.
I am a producer which means I love organising. I spent 15 years as an Artistic Director and CEO of Battersea Arts Centre. My work in the cultural sector has focussed on how organisations can shift their purpose and mindset, from a preoccupation with their own interests to becoming a resource for other people’s passions, ideas and creativity.
It is time governance got a reboot. Why do we make decisions in publicly funded organisations without involving the public? Why do we have a House of Lords when we could have a House of Citizens? Decisions are better when they are made by a diverse range of people. I believe we need to embed citizen-led decision-making into all our governance models.
