Head of Community

The Head of Community role sits within our Take Part Department. The Head of Community is line managed by the Take Part Director and works alongside the Take Part Officer and Mental Health Project Co-ordinator. Whilst the Take Part Officer is also line‑managed by the Take Part Director, the Head of Community may instruct the Take Part Officer in their involvement in certain projects, as well as managing project managers in support of our work with older people.

The role leads on engagement with our community, identification of need and helps to create programmes to meet it. The role therefore has the unique opportunity to make connections and to create support that will have lasting and life changing impacts. The role is suitable for candidates with strong professional experience in community arts and social impact work. We are looking for someone who is passionate about the arts, and their capacity to effect positive change in people's lives.

We want to know why you would like to work with us, the ways in which you meet the person specification and how your experience might enable you to deliver the role as laid out in the job description.
