Calderdale will be 50 in 2024. We will be marking the end of our Vision 2024 with CultureDale, a Year of Culture celebrating the richness, diversity and distinctiveness of our communities across Calderdale.

You will work closely with local artists, cultural organisations, charities, and other partners to build positive relationships and create engaging events.

With excellent communication skills, you will also represent the Year of Culture team at relevant outside partnership bodies at local, regional, and national level.

If you do not meet all the qualifications or experience listed in the job description, but you have relevant lived experience and are eager to learn, we will provide training and development opportunities to help you succeed in this role.
