Strategies and Action Plans

The simple idea that the Opera House was built to serve the community is at the heart of our ambition for the future – to be Everyone’s House.

Our people

Sydney Opera House is a statutory body established under Sydney Opera House Trust Act, 1961, and operates as one of the State’s cultural institutions within the Arts portfolio. The Opera House is managed by a Trust and an Executive team.

Executive Team

The Sydney Opera House Executive Team works in partnership with the Trust and is responsible for developing, implementing and monitoring the organisational strategy. The Executive Team comprises portfolio directors working to the Chief Executive Officer.

Trust

The Sydney Opera House Trust consists of 10 members appointed by the Governor on the nomination of the Minister for the Arts. A Trustee holds office for three years and is eligible for reappointment for no more than three consecutive terms. The Trustees must include at least two persons who have knowledge of, or experience in the performing arts.
