Executive Director (part-time) | CVAN East Midlands

Following the appointment of Hammad Nasar as Co-Curator of British Art Show 9, the Stuart Hall Foundation is seeking an experienced Executive Director to lead the development and growth of the Foundation as we mark our fifth year. Inspired by the life’s work of Professor Stuart Hall, the Stuart Hall Foundation is a young charity committed to imagining more hopeful, socially and racially just futures, and catalysing action towards achieving them. Through an inter-disciplinary programme which includes fellowships and scholarships, events and commissions, we are particularly keen to encourage younger, under-represented and/or disadvantaged artists, thinkers and activists to develop ideas, artistic practice and cultural activism that engage present and future generations.

This is an exciting opportunity for an inspirational leader with demonstrable experience of running an early-stage organisation who has knowledge and understanding of the scope and impact of Stuart Hall’s work and the ability to work across the range of artistic, intellectual and political arenas that he occupied.

Working in close collaboration with the Trustees of the Foundation and part-time Office and Project Manager, the Executive Director will have overall responsibility for implementing the Foundation’s strategic plans, programme of activities, fundraising and future development.

To apply please send your CV accompanied by a covering letter (one side of A4 maximum) explaining why you are seeking this position and how you fit the criteria. Please provide contact details of two referees, we will not contact your referees without your permission.

For any enquiries, please contact Ilze Rieba at info@stuarthallfoundation.org.

Closing date for applications: Monday 30 September 2019 at midday.

Interviews will be held in London on Friday 18 October.
