Creative you! Project coordinator with East Street Arts

East Street Arts are looking for a Project Co-ordinator to coordinate the delivery of the Creative You! Project

The Creative You! LifeSkills Project aims to use a creative learning approach to engagement which means projects which happen with people (rather than at them!). This project aims to build on the work East Street Art has been doing with the East Leeds neighbourhoods.

Creative You! LifeSkills Project supports unemployed and inactive residents living primarily in the Mabgate, Burmantofts and Lincoln Green neighbourhoods and surrounding areas of Harehills and Gipton to find pathways to employment using arts engagement activities, support, mentoring and advice, alongside the development of a range of lifelong skills to make a successful transition into the labour market.

East Street Arts will deliver a programme of participatory arts activities, digital capability upskilling, practical skills in job search using creative engagement strategies and workplace experiences with participants. The programme will engage participants in weekly sessions, hands-on activities, 1-2-1 mentorships, work placement and shadowing.

Salary: £17,280 part time at 27 hours per week (full time equivalent salary: £24,000 per annum).
Type of Contract: Fixed term, 12-month contract.

Deadline for applications: 12 noon on Friday 26 November 2021.
