Description

The Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts is recognised as a world leading centre of excellence for creative learning and vocational training within the performing arts and creative economies.

We enjoy an international and national reputation for the quality of our teaching, our world class facilities and an enviable track record of graduate employment and alumni successes.

This is an exciting time to join us.

Led by our new Principal/CEO, we have developed a new strategic plan and are undertaking a major review of our curriculum and developing our submission to achieve university status in our own right through the acquisition of degree awarding powers.

Our diverse disciplines and programmes have been restructured into three newly created schools; Creative Technologies, Design & Enterprise, Music, and Performance.

You will play a key role in further developing a professionally active team of colleagues and a focused departmental portfolio which sits at the centre of our significant production output.

Alongside your leadership, management, and teaching role at programme level, you will also contribute to operational management and production delivery at an institutional level.

As a new colleague you will join a thriving creative community and learning environment, working with inspiring students and supportive colleagues.

The successful applicant will contribute to the ongoing development of vocational learning, practice, and scholarship within LIPA.

In return we offer a competitive salary commensurate with experience, generous pension, and holiday entitlements, complimentary tickets to our inhouse productions, and the opportunity to become part of our unique international community of creatives, performers, technicians, managers, and film makers.

This is a permanent post to commence from 4 September 2023, or as soon as possible thereafter.

Interviews: 4/5 May 2023
CVs will not be accepted as we are a Higher Education Institute.
