Role Details
We are looking to meet Project Producers & Lead Producers to oversee and run future contracts with our teams. We have some great long-term relationships, but as our portfolio grows we're looking to build our networks and meet new collaborators that can co-deliver our next stage of projects.
We're interested to hear from people with direct experience delivering ambitious projects in experience design, installation, audience interaction, exhibition and/or immersive contexts, and from those who work in project specific fixed term contracts and/or freelance contracts. To manage expectations we are not looking to work with Assistant Producers or early career Producers on a project basis, and we are not looking for Producers with experience of live performance, at this particular time.
You will be able to work regularly within London - we're unable to consider applications from those working remotely for this opportunity.
