Job Summary

Job Description

We are seeking an experienced HR Manager to join the team here at Brixton House to provide expertise in employment related issues, and spearhead best practice and due process. If you are a clear and confident communicator with substantial experience in managing change, we'd love to hear from you.

Brixton House is more than just a cultural space; it is a vibrant community hub where creativity thrives, voices are heard, and everyone is welcomed and celebrated. We invite you to join us in our mission to enrich lives through the power of the arts.

Our vision is to empower the undervalued, unheard, and excluded communities through our creative and cultural spaces. We believe in creating a haven where every voice matters, where stories from all walks of life can be shared and celebrated. Our mission is rooted in the rich and influential history of Ovalhouse Theatre, from which Brixton House has emerged as a dynamic new cultural hub. We are dedicated to presenting and collaborating with voices and perspectives that are often marginalised in mainstream funded culture.

Our commitment to building a strong connection with our community is reflected in our core values:

  1. Always be welcoming to our international community
  2. Be radical and progressive in our thinking and activities
  3. Be collaborative in our ambitions - nurturing new relationships locally, and beyond Brixton
  4. Most importantly, always celebrate our unique identity and growing accomplishments
