The ideal candidate will have significant experience of working in theatre and related artforms, such as live-art, dance, and contemporary performance.

You should be able to demonstrate your ability to work closely and communicate effectively with a range of external partners at various levels. Strong interpersonal skills and team working, the ability to develop and establish partnerships both at home and abroad, and a commitment to our core values are all essential. An overview of the arts, screen and creative industries in Scotland would be advantageous.
