The Family Engagement Lead is an exciting new role that will grow our offer for children and young people and their families, with the aim particularly of helping families who wouldn’t normally engage with Bolton’s Octagon to take part in cultural activities.
You will be working with families to co-design meaningful activity that they have a real stake in. Alongside our Head of Creative Engagement, you will develop a new strategy for working with families in partnership with schools, community partners and families themselves. As the post and project are brand new, this is an exciting opportunity to shape the direction of their family work.
You will be confident in working with families from a range of social backgrounds, with a collaborative approach to your work and a passion for developing projects with communities. You will be able to forge and maintain positive relationships with partners.
You will have excellent project management skills, be confident managing budgets and have a good eye for detail and for artistic and creative merit. You will have a strong understanding of what makes a quality cultural experience for families.
You will also be confident in shaping and driving this new project whilst delivering against clear outcomes. You will share our commitment to excellence, diversity and inclusion in the arts.
