London, UK, United Kingdom SADLERS WELLS Full time

We’re looking for a stakeholder relationship manager, someone who excels at persuasive writing and communicating effectively with diverse audiences. In this role, you will manage and present data to highlight our impact, lead the coordination of projects including events and publications, and drive activations that make a real difference. If you're looking for an opportunity to make a meaningful impact and advance your career in a senior role, then this is a perfect match.

At Sadler’s Wells everyone is welcome.

The new role of Head of Advocacy and Policy will help ensure dance is at the top of the national cultural agenda as we open our fourth theatre Sadler’s Wells East in February 2025. If you’re thinking to yourself I want a strategic leadership role, I want to make an impact, then this is the role for you. If you're at a stage of your career where you’re looking for a new challenge, you won't get a better opportunity than this.

You’ll be working closely with our Co-CEOs in their public facing roles. You would be responsible for internal and external communications in collaboration with the Marketing & Communications team. This role will be to use data to tell our impact story and elevate our impact.

Your experience of collaborating across teams, evaluation and storytelling will be critical in this role. You’ll be great at engaging stakeholders and statutory funders and have a track record of successfully engaging and supporting teams. This is a people role, so you will need to be able to demonstrate your negotiation and communications skills.

There’s no better time for you to take this leap. You’ll be extending your networking reach and contributing to key sector and industry issues. You’ll be joining us at an exciting time of growth and ambition.

We’re a supportive and hardworking team, working on a variety of projects. We have a ‘smarter working’ approach and encourage both on-site and remote working. Sadler’s Wells benefits include:

  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Complimentary tickets and discounts
  • Enhanced holiday and time off in lieu policy
  • Additional pay for parental and family leave subject to eligibility

We welcome all applications by 11:59pm BST on Sunday 12 January 2025. Interviews will take place on week commencing Monday 20 January 2025.

We are committed to building a culturally diverse workforce and actively encourage applications from Black, Asian and those belonging to ethnic groups that are currently underrepresented within the Arts. Applications from d/Deaf and disabled communities and low socio-economic backgrounds are also welcome. As a user of the Disability Confident Scheme, we guarantee to interview all disabled candidates who meet the minimum essential criteria for the role as set out in the Job Pack.

Sadler’s Wells is a PiPA (Parents and Carers in Performing Arts) Charter Partner, striving towards creating a more family friendly working environment.
