From Franklin Furnace:
Live Art Development Agency, London, UK, seeks applications for Deputy

Wanted - Deputy Director for the Live Art Development Agency
an impressive, idiosyncratic example of what a small organisation can
achieve as collaborator, conduit and cultivator. (Real Time)
Launched in January 1999, the Live Art Development Agency is the leading
development organisation for Live Art in the UK, offering resources,
professional development opportunities, and curatorial and publishing
initiatives to support Live Art practices and critical discourses in London,
the UK and internationally.
Following the appointment of Daniel Brine (Associate Director 2001 – 2008)
as Director of Performance Space, Sydney, the Agency is seeking to fill a
new post of Deputy Director.
This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic individual to join the Agency
in its tenth anniversary year, and help shape its future.
The new Deputy Director post will be primarily responsible for the
financial, managerial and developmental aspects of the Agency’s work. In
addition to these core responsibilities the Deputy Director will also work
alongside the artistic staff on the creative development of the Agency: the
planning of its artistic programmes, the development of its resources, the
delivery of its core programmes and, where appropriate, the production of
specific projects including publications and events. The Deputy Director
will also be a public face for the Agency and represent it and its work to a
diversity of constituencies.
The Agency is happy to take a flexible approach as to how this post and its
responsibilities might be best filled.
