Project Worker, Young People’s Programme

Help us #sharetheLOV.

£18,500 – £19,500 dependent on experience.

Full Time – Fixed term post until March 2018.

LOV is a network of visual and performing arts centres in Lincolnshire, established to create a more coherent arts offer across a large and predominately rural county.

With support from the Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Esmée Fairbairn Foundation and Arts Council England, we are seeking to employ a Project Worker who will join Lincolnshire One Venues through this stage of development.

The project worker will join the existing team to deliver the three strands of the young people’s programme; participation, programming and education. As the team work across the entire County of Lincolnshire there are times when you will have to work independently, so great communication and self-motivation are essential. The project worker for this post will support three venues in the network, each with a young decision making group so experience of working on participatory youth-led projects with young people is essential. This role will also take the lead on the evaluation of the project with the young evaluation team and head up a pilot outreach strand which will be developed and delivered over the coming year.

We are particularly interested to hear from people with experience in developing and leading on projects created with, by and for young people both in venues and community settings and understand the delicate balance needed to support youth-led activity.

If you are highly motivated, with great organisational and planning skills and have the experience, commitment and enthusiasm to work with young people, artists and venues then we want to hear from you.
