Financial and administrative oversight is also central to the role, with responsibility for reconciling budgets, managing royalty agreements, and contributing to financial reporting. The Projects Manager will also lead on evaluation, reporting, and environmental initiatives linked to touring. 

This is an exciting opportunity for a highly organised, detail-oriented individual with a passion for the arts, who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is eager to contribute to the success of one of the world’s leading contemporary dance organisations.
