As one of twelve new Creative People and Places (CPP) projects funded by Arts Council England, Rooted marks a new chapter for Nuneaton and Bedworth, its people and place. Our shared mission is simple: to increase participation in arts and culture, especially among those least likely to take part, and to celebrate creativity as an essential part of everyday life.

Together, as a Consortium of civic, social and cultural partners, we are building a project that places creativity directly in the hands of the people who live and work here through co-creation. The Programme Director will lead in bringing this to life, managing a small team, working with residents, artists and partners to co-create a programme that builds pride, connection and opportunity.

You will help write the next chapter of our story at a moment of real transformation in the Borough.

You will:

• Lead in delivering the Rooted programme as part of the Creative People and Places initiative

• Manage a small team and collaborate with residents, artists and partners to co-create a programme that increases participation in arts and culture

• Foster community engagement, build pride, connection and opportunity within the Borough

• Work in a collaborative, cross-sector environment as part of a wider consortium

You must be passionate about driving positive change within communities and the Voluntary, Community, Faith and Social Enterprise (VCFSE) Sector, thrive in collaborative environments, and be a motivated, dynamic individual with strong management experience to join our team.

If you share our belief that community participation and creativity can transform people and places, we would love to hear from you.
