JOB: Scottish Sculpture Workshop Seeks New Director
Rural location : Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Salary: £35 - 40,000 depending on experience
Application Closing date: 31/10/2016

The Board of the Scottish Sculpture Workshop wish to appoint a Director. We are looking for a dynamic leader who can work from a rural base to manage an internationally recognised research and production facility for contemporary artists.

As well as the day to day management, the role will include maintaining existing and generating new networks of contacts that connect the organisation and extend the possibilities and opportunities that SSW can offer artists who make use of, or who are invited to use, the production and research facilities.

Beyond the Residency activity, the Director is expected to generate a programme of projects, events, debates, exhibitions and commissions that further develops the profile of the organisation. Linked to this are priorities for audience development and the requirement for a complimentary programme that engages young people and regional audiences and participants.

This position is an opportunity for an ambitious individual to challenge and advance the organisation by joining SSW in a leadership role at this exciting time. The requirement is to further establish the profile of SSW through managing the facility and continuing with the dynamic, considered programme that has an impact across the region as well as nationally and internationally through the creation of opportunities for artists.
