HEAD OF PROGRAMMES
London, UK
Full-time
We are pleased to announce two new positions at Asymmetry. The Head of Programmes will shape, develop and deliver Asymmetry’s programmes, including public programmes, collaborations with partner institutions and our Fellows’ network alongside our Director and team.
We are looking for an experienced individual who has strong interdisciplinary experience in curating and running public programmes and leading research. The candidate should have existing relationships with a wide network of potential collaborators within the arts ecosystem. They will devise and oversee a research-led programme strategy that aligns with Asymmetry's vision, mission and values in knowledge production and connecting a wide range of audiences and communities.
This is a leadership position requiring independent conceptualisation and oversight of Asymmetry's activities, as well as excellent communication and team management skills.
The successful candidate will work in a small but dynamic and active organisation, within a tight-knit and supportive team with close contact to our network of Fellows and Scholars, our partner institutions and their practitioners, including curators, writers, critics, scholars, and artists. The candidate will vitally contribute and shape the foundation’s vision, mission and values, while promoting our meaningful work to advance a more inclusive and global understanding of contemporary art and curatorial practice.
Our HQ is a multipurpose space, based in a RIBA-nominated building in London Fields, and offers an excellent environment for teamwork and team building where many of our internal and external events take place.
