AUDIENCE & ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIST

Terms: Freelance
Fee: £3010 (£215 per day for 14 days)
Location: Remote, with one visit to 2Faced Dance Company in Hereford

Having created and toured new work for the past 25 years, we have cultivated a reputation for creative excellence both in the UK and internationally, and we have just been successful in securing ACE Funding for our most ambitious work yet. We are looking for an experienced Audience and Engagement Strategist to join 2Faced Dance Company to craft, lead and implement audience development initiatives and strategies in order to expand and diversify engagement with our nationwide UK tour of our new work, Tomorrow. Focusing primarily on audiences not currently connected with the company’s work, you will be working alongside the team, coming on board during the creation stage of the company’s new work.

This role is essential for ensuring a broad and engaged audience for Tomorrow, creating meaningful connections that foster long-term participation in our work.

Job Requirements: We are looking for an exceptional individual with experience of devising and curating bespoke audience engagement strategies for touring new contemporary dance work, with excellent knowledge of the challenges and opportunities facing the current UK touring sector. Someone who has experience working on at least one mid-scale regional UK tour with strong communication skills and a willingness to become part of a small, committed and enthusiastic team: the ability to work with minimal supervision and to act on own initiative whilst working in collaboration with the company to create an engagement plan to run alongside each tour date with a clear focus on the themes of the work.

The closing date for applications is Friday 4th April 2025. Interviews will be held online week commencing 14th April 2025
