Chatsworth House, which is part of the Devonshire Group, has appointed a new director.

Jane Marriott has been appointed to the new role of director of Chatsworth House Trust.

Joining from Harewood House Trust, her remit includes leading the development and delivery of a compelling creative programme to reach and engage new audiences in the UK and globally.

She is also tasked with increasing the social impact of the trust’s activities, overseeing the Devonshire Collections of art, artefacts and archives across its various sites, and building the trust’s endowment to ensure an ever more secure future for the heritage assets under its stewardship.

She said: “Chatsworth has an incredible reach with more than 600,000 annual visitors, meaning there is huge potential to engage with, and have a positive impact on, a wide and diverse audience.

“I look forward to working with the family and the team at Chatsworth to widen our reach and demonstrate value to our communities as a charitable trust, whilst protecting this vital piece of our national heritage for generations to come.”

Lord Burlington, chair of the Chatsworth House Trust, said: “Jane’s experience and achievements in the arts, culture and heritage arenas make her the perfect person to lead an ambitious new chapter of growth and development for the charity.”
