We generally produce at least three productions a year, including our Te Reo Maori tour into primary kura.
As our Tumu Whakarae you will lead our small team (3) as well as our wider roopu of artists, producers and other contractors.
You will be responsible for all aspects of management including ensuring effective production management, finance and funding, marketing, Board reporting and human resources.
You will work closely with the Artistic Advisory Panel who develop our programming, as well as with our board and the wider Maori arts sector.
Ko wai koe| About you An established leader and manager, you have a track record of delivery and a broad kete of skills that will allow you to hit the ground running.
A high degree of competency in te reo me ona tikanga is important, along with the ability to thrive in our kaupapa Maori context.
It's likely your background will have included either events management or arts administration, but this isn't essential.
However, you will need to have a genuine interest and connection to our kaupapa and our creative communities.
This is a rare opportunity to take a real leadership role in the Maori arts sector, and we would love to have a korero with you.
You must have the right to live and work in Aotearoa New Zealand to apply for this job.
