Rising - Program Administrator
We are looking for a Program Administrator to help us build and maintain the robust administrative systems needed to realise our ambitious program. This role is suited to an experienced arts administrator who is passionate about the cultural sector and thrives in a fast-paced team environment.
Reporting into the Deputy Executive Producer and Executive Producer, you’ll work closely with the entire Programming team and the Production Administrator in day-to-day operations. As a new festival, RISING has a strong focus on producing our own events and commissioning new work. You’ll play a key role in ensuring our operational model has dynamic, flexible and efficient administrative systems.
Your ability to process information and your friendly but firm demeanour will enable our increasingly complex workflow to be managed across multiple departments in a streamlined way. You see it as your mission to minimise onerous procedure and maximise seamless information sharing.
Your experience in arts administration has taught you to be meticulous, but flexible and adaptable. You know where the roadblocks might appear and how to pre-empt them. You’re collaborative and have a positive approach to finding solutions.
You’re a digital native and online project management tools and database systems are second nature to you. Best practice is your starting point, not your benchmark; you like to reflect on how things could be done differently for a better outcome next time.
You are able to deal with a high-volume workload while maintaining an eagle eye for detail. You thrive in a dynamic and demanding work environment; you move fast and with passion and commitment. No one holds you to a higher standard than yourself – you believe in personal accountability and understand delegations of authority.
This role is fixed term until 16 July 2021.
Applications close on 13th July 2020.
