Community Impact Coordinator

We are seeking to appoint a Community Impact Coordinator – North who has a passion for community engagement and believes in the value of cultural and creative opportunities for people where they live and work.

We’re looking for someone who is self-motivated, organised and efficient, a good communicator, believing in and committed to maximising the value of cultural engagement for people where they live and work.

You don’t need to have a background of working in the orchestral or performing arts sector to undertake this role – we’re more interested in your ability to build relationships and trust with a wide variety of people, and your project management and organisational skills. We’re excited by people who bring different work and life experiences, perspectives and ways of doing things to the organisation.

Working closely with the Regional Producer – North, you will play an important part in delivering our strategy for the region. You will be a local advocate and intermediary, using proven models to engage communities in shaping orchestral experiences that relate to their interests and needs. You will help to build long-term programmes that deepen impact in areas where Orchestras Live has existing partnerships, and develop new partnerships in specified areas of the region that have experienced historical underinvestment.

You will be based in the North of England, joining a team of 15 employees across England.

Orchestras Live is an Equal Opportunities and a Living Wage employer. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, age groups and cultures. We are keen to hear from Black, Asian, and ethnically diverse, D/deaf and disabled candidates as they are currently under-represented in our staff team.

This is a full-time post for a fixed term of 18 months with potential for extension. Salary £25,000 per annum.
