Programme and Development Manager
We are recruiting for the exciting new post of Programme and Development Manager to deliver our ambitious programme model and take a leading role in developing our sustainable growth as a charity.
The Programme and Development Manager will support Sound Lab at a pivotal point in our journey as a small charity. In recent years, we have maintained a steady growth as we have grown to accommodate the ever-increasing demand for our programmes, and are looking for someone to help take us to the next level.
We are looking for a skilled, committed and values-driven individual to drive improvements to our programme model and help realise our potential as an organisation. Someone who ‘gets’ the value of creativity and has experience of working with children and young people.
Working alongside a supportive Board of Trustees, volunteer and tutor team, you will be the critical conduit between children, young people, partners and our tutors in making programme delivery happen, and providing brilliant experiences for our young people.
You will work with the Sound Lab Board to develop and oversee a fundraising strategy that aims to maximise our income from a variety of sources and allows us to deliver our strategic aims and business plan objectives for 2023/24. You will help maintain existing relationships and develop new partnerships with referral partners, funders and music industry contacts.
As well as providing leadership for the coordination of Sound Lab programmes, you will play a hands-on role in supporting tutors and volunteers to build relationships with young people, as well as support participants with their musical and career aspirations.
Reporting to the Sound Lab Chair, you will provide line management of any Sound Lab staff, as well as support the administration of The Sound Lab’s Board of Trustees and volunteers.
This is a permanent full-time post, paid at £34,000 p/annum. You will be mostly home-based with access to free shared office space and regular travel around Glasgow, with travel costs covered. You will mainly work 9-5pm, but with flexibility for some evening/weekend work.
