**Department: Programme**

**Salary: £23922**

**Hours**:40 hours per week (TOIL). Some weekend and evening work is necessary.

**Location**:based in the office at Chapter in Cardiff. We offer a hybrid model which means that you can also work from home when possible.

**Responsible to**:Director of Programme / Interim Co-Director

**ABOUT CHAPTER**

Chapter is an international centre for contemporary arts and culture, rooted in Cardiff. For more than 50 years, it’s been a catalyst for creativity and critical thinking, supporting artists and audiences to thrive and take risks. We believe that art has the power to connect us all.

We’re a dynamic hub that produces and promotes inventive and compelling work. Across visual art, performance and film, we present an experimental, evocative and bold programme of events all year round.

Alongside our public arts programme in our gallery, theatres and cinemas, we work behind the scenes to support continuous professional development, connecting deeply with creative practitioners to support their career paths.

We’re also creative home to 52 artists and companies who are based in our studios, offer spaces for an array of weekly and monthly classes, and operate a busy café bar which is a vibrant social space in the heart of our venue.

Our programme is celebrated internationally, but our role as a local hub is equally important. We work with and for the people on our doorstep to create compelling, transformative experiences connecting art with community.

We believe in the power of the arts to transform lives and promote personal and social wellbeing. We strive for our venue and programme to be accessible to everyone, and welcome around 500,000 people through our doors every year. However, we also understand that many people face barriers to attendance and we’re working with our community and stakeholders to ensure that we’re relevant, interesting and welcoming to more people.

Founded in 1971, Chapter is both a Charity and a Limited Company. Chapter (Cardiff) Ltd represents the Charity, while Chapter (Trading) Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Chapter Cardiff through which we run the café bar.

The Chapter group is not for profit and is funded through a mix of earned income from ticket sales, café bar, hires, and rents alongside funding from organisations such as the Arts Council of Wales, the British Film Institute and Welsh Government.

We employ about 80 people and have a turnover of c.£3.5 million per year. We’re employee focused, through our benefits, policies and practices and proud to be a Real Living Wage Employer.

**PURPOSE OF ROLE**

We work with creative practitioners, partners and stakeholders to create a compelling programme across all artforms. Artists and audiences are at the heart of everything we do, and we foreground ambitious, experimental and accessible projects.

The Programme Assistant will provide administrative support and coordination for the Director of Programme and the wider programme team.

This will include administration and delivery of the visual art, performing arts and film programme; supporting the co-ordination of events in-venue, online and elsewhere; supporting relationships with artists and companies; preparing reports both internally and externally as required; supporting the link between programme and marketing through administrative assistance of the website and mailing lists; taking accurate minutes of meetings as required; liaising with all departments to ensure that they are up-to-date with the programme of activity at Chapter; undertaking occasional programme research as required.

The Programme Assistant is a key member of the programme team and, under the direction of the Director of Programme, works to deliver a cohesive, centre-wide programme that’s aligned to our overall artistic strategy.

**OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE**

This is an exciting role within the organisation and the Programme Assistant works across all of our artform areas including film, visual art, performance and public engagement. It’s a very busy department and, as such, you’ll be required to be proactive, energetic, flexible and creative in your approach. You’ll also need to be methodical with an exceptional eye for detail as a large part of the role is providing administrative support and coordination.

You’ll be organised and have excellent communication skills and the ability to handle sensitive situations with diplomacy. You’ll be adaptable and able to work to tight deadlines, remaining calm and focused under pressure. You’ll thrive in a team but will also be able to work on your own initiative when required.

You’ll be curious and passionate about the arts and committed to delivering creative and engaging programmes across all artforms.
