Scottish Sculpture Workshop: New Post of Development Manager

Salary: £25k pro rata (4 days per week)

Job Purpose
This is a new post that will be instrumental in taking SSW into an exciting new phase. By strengthening the links developed over the past 3 years and developing key new partnerships, you will build the value of the organisation to artists and audiences across the north east, through the ambitious new capital development project, and beyond.

Working closely with the Director, you will devise and implement a range of programmes and projects to increase use of the on-site facilities and the number of outreach opportunities for artists. By effectively marketing and promoting the organisation and its activity, you will help generate new audiences and income streams to support projects and the current programme of Capital development.

Responsibilities include overseeing, with the technical team, the day to day running of the site, ensuring that SSW is an effective and welcoming host to visiting artists, school and community groups and event attendees. Consolidating our artist-led approach to audience development and participation, you will be key to our plans to create a higher profile for SSW during the proposed re-development, and beyond the re-launch in summer 2010.
