Director of Audiences

Art Fund
London, N1
competitive salary and benefits package
Hackney

For 120 years, we’ve been helping museums and people to share in great art and culture – because we believe that access to art is vital for a healthy society. We do three things, all intertwined. We fund art, helping the UK’s museums to enrich their collections for today and forever. We build audiences, with our National Art Pass opening doors to great culture.

THE ROLE

It’s an incredibly exciting time to join Art Fund. As the current postholder leaves us after 15 successful years we are looking for our new Director of Audiences to be an inspirational and collaborative leader, who can build on excellent foundations to deliver the next step change in our brand, membership and income growth.

Working closely with me and the Senior Management Team, you will play a key part in driving and shaping the success of Art Fund, ensuring we deliver against our ambitious plans. You may not have direct experience in the arts and heritage sector but will have a passion for the benefits that visiting museums and galleries can have for everyone, be adept at building strong, mutually beneficial stakeholder relationships and be driven by innovation, opportunity and excellent customer journeys based on insight.
