The Head of Programmes will play a pivotal role in shaping and executing programmes that drive the development and sustainability of our music ecosystem and creative infrastructure in the North East.

It is a really exciting time to join our team in what's set to be a hugely exciting few years. The perfect candidate will align with our core values to be inspiring, champion positivity, connect with empathy, and lead with honesty and integrity.

You'll be incredibly passionate about the music and creative industries, our wonderful region, and Generator's mission and vision. You'll thrive working in a fast-paced creative environment amongst a small, but mighty, team.

We're looking for someone with proven experience in a leadership role within a similar organisation or industry. You will have strong project management skills with a track record of successfully delivering complex programmes and be experienced and proficient in managing budgets and financial reporting.

An ambition to shape the region's music ecosystem and creative infrastructure in the North East is crucial, and ideally you will have a past performance of effectively running Arts Council England and/or Local Authority-funded programmes.

A positive, can-do attitude is imperative with the desire to work as part of, and manage, a talented and inclusive team. In return, we can offer you a flexible, creative work environment where you'll be supported by passionate and positive people, excited about making a real difference through our work.
