Senior Project Manager - Estuary 2020

As a key member of Metal’s team working towards Estuary 2020 you will be based in Southend on Sea working largely, but not exclusively on the South Essex side of the river.   This is a senior role with the following responsibilities:

- Developing and maintaining strategic partnerships and opportunities for the festival programme;

- Working with artists to produce and realise new, commissioned work as well as finding opportunities to show existing works;

- Helping to raise funds and develop the resources and team to deliver an exciting set of cultural development and arts events programming;

- Working with a wide and diverse constituency of people through artist-led socially engaged and participatory practice.

This is a fantastic opportunity for you if: you thrive on building relationships and shaping ambitious arts programme; you can demonstrate a commitment to creating opportunities for people of all ages and from all walks of life to participate in, and access great art; and if you can evidence practical experience of attracting funding and resources to create exciting cultural events.

Deadline for applications is Friday 31 May. Interviews will take place w/c 17 June 2019.
