Derbyshire County Council are seeking to appoint an Arts Partnership Manager for the Derbyshire Arts Partnership. If you are a graduate with working experience of the Arts Sector and Local Authorities, including project management, fund raising and strategic planning they would like to hear from you.  The nine local authorities in Derbyshire are working together to develop the arts in the creative economy.  They are looking for a motivated and well-organised person to co-ordinate this partnership and manage the programmes of work it generates.  In the first instance, this will involve managing projects to develop the artsderbyshire website, an Arts and Health Plan, a Creative Industries Strategy, a Dance Development Plan and raising funds for future work.  The post is being hosted by Derbyshire County Council and will be part of the Arts Team within the Cultural and Community Services Department.

The post is available either as a single 32-hour post or as a job-share, divided into:

One 10-hour post, to concentrate on digital media, online platforms and the artsderbyshire website, and

One 22-hour post to manage the main projects, currently arts and health, creative industries and dance development.

A car user allowance is attached to this post but it is possible for the allowance to be converted to other forms of transport where there is a requirement to undertake travel as part of this post.
