Pervasive Media Studio Producer (Maternity Cover)

Source: www.artsjobs.org.uk

Pay: 25-30k (Full time)

Deadline: 31st May 2016

Watershed is looking for an ambitious Producer to join their Creative Team for one year, to manage the Pervasive Media Studio, and support and extend the diversity of its community.

The Pervasive Media Studio hosts a brilliantly mixed community of artists, creative companies, technologists and academics exploring experience design and creative technology. It is a collaboration with UWE Bristol and University of Bristol. We have a great workspace, an open ethos and a can-do attitude.

Watershed believes in the positive benefits of diversity and feels the best way to create and develop ideas is to draw from the widest possible pool of collaborators. This is demonstrated through our cultural cinema programme and initiatives like Deaf Conversations about Cinema,Come The Revolution and Rife Magazine.  This approach ensures the Pervasive Media Studio community reaches across art forms, sectors and business models, and includes a range of gender, age and ability. However the Studio community does not yet reflect the vibrant ethnic mix of Bristol or the UK’s creative sector.

This maternity cover post allows us to reach out for some fresh thinking around how we create more inclusive talent development programmes and bring more people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds into the Studio, which we know will benefit all of our community. It offers you the opportunity to join a vibrant, open and generous organisation and deliver something new.

You will be a curator of people, understanding how to form collaborations and mobilise networks. You will be brave in your ideas and considered in your approach. You may come from working in the commercial or the cultural sector but will understand the value of combining both.

Watershed encourages applications from people of all backgrounds but particularly welcomes applications from candidates from a BAME background as they are under-represented within our staff team.
