Deadline: April 29
The Residency seeks to build a powerful community of young hip-hop artists equipped with the artistic and leadership skills, business acumen, and mentorship necessary to become professional artists and cultural change makers.
Through their participation in The Residency, young artists from low-income families acquire tangible artistic and professional skills while also gaining confidence, teamwork, and a deepened understanding of their own identity and power.
As the Events Program Manager, you’ll join a small team to drive the planning, marketing, and execution processes for all of the Residency’s events, both online and in-person. In this role, you’ll think big to deliver new ideas and creative approaches to constantly improve the customer experience.
This role requires superior management, problem-solving and interpersonal skills, at least 2 years of related experience, and (preferably) a Bachelor's degree in business, marketing, technology or a relevant field of study (among other quals).
Salary is at least $50K and work must be performed in or near Seattle, Washington. If you’re interested, hit the “Apply” link above and email the team your resume, cover letter, and 3 references (putting the name of the position in the email’s subject line).
What I love
High-quality, experiential arts education!
This team clearly has a connection to the youth it serves.
Their programming looks deep, dynamic, and well-crafted.
There’s a strong mix of heart and head, i.e., social justice + business acumen.
Plus I see significant music industry connections and strong cultivation of sponsor relationships (which lessens my worry about org sustainability).
Don’t forget…
You can follow this org, read about its team, and follow the team members whose profiles inspire you - a great way to build your social impact scenius!
