The post will lead the delivery of a major national partnership project exploring the cultural and historical relationship between Scotland and cinema.

V&A Dundee and Screen Scotland (the Strategic Partners) are seeking a Programme Lead who will strategically drive the national partnership opportunities, manage stakeholders and oversee the operational aspects of the project’s development. The post holder will play a pivotal role in shaping partnership agreements and external relationships, acting as the central point of contact between the Strategic Partners, the project’s Creative Consultant and a growing network of partners and collaborators.

Internally, the Programme Lead will work alongside the curatorial and production teams to manage resource, timelines and budget, chair organisation-wide Project Team Meetings and support cross-organisational communications. They will join a small, focused team as the project moves from research and development into operational delivery, and will work with colleagues across the organisation as well as partner organisations, a reference group and external stakeholders.

We welcome applications from individuals currently working within the Scottish screen sector and would be pleased to consider secondment opportunities.
