Extant is about to embark on an exciting 3-year new leadership development programme, supporting new visually impaired talent at a higher level within the Company and developing new leadership models in collaboration with our higher education partners.

As part of this, Extant is offering two brand new paid Trainee Artistic Director (TAD) opportunities over the next 3 years.

This is a 15 month 3 day per week (0.6 FTE) fixed term contract.

We will be as flexible as we can to accommodate your existing plans and projects during the traineeship.

Location: We offer hybrid working with the TAD expected to be in the office at our home in Carlton Mansions, Brixton House for some of the traineeship. (We are open to supporting regional candidates to undertake the traineeship and will discuss the best way to do this with successful applicants.)
