Job Summary

£28,000 to £32,000 per annum Full-time. Permanent (Tuesday to Saturday) Based: Victoria Place, Woking, Surrey

Job Description

Do you have a passion for performing arts training and events?

Would you thrive in a dynamic, creative environment where no two days are the same?


And would you relish the opportunity to work in a multifaceted role supporting the successful delivery of our exciting portfolio of new short courses, managing Italia Conti Associates and supporting Italia Conti productions and events?

At Italia Conti we're expanding our short courses over the course of the coming year. This exciting new post combines being at the forefront of providing the support that underpins the successful delivery of these new courses with working alongside our Events & Outreach Manager in support of Italia Conti events and productions. In addition, the postholder will take on a management role in the smooth-running of our flagship Italia Conti Woking Associates Saturday School for children and young people aged 4-18.

It's a hugely varied role that bridges our academic and teaching teams with our public-facing activity. From ensuring the smooth operation of our short courses to providing a welcoming experience for all, your contribution will be vital to our continued growth and impact.

The post involves working on Saturdays during term-time but could revert to a Monday to Friday working pattern outside of the academic terms.

If the opportunity to step into a central role at one of the UK's most exciting values-led performing arts institutions appeals to you, we would love to hear from you.
