    Description
    Executive & Artistic Director – Alberta Theatre Projects
    The Virgin Trial – Alberta Theatre Projects
    Alberta Theatre Projects is preparing for our 50th Anniversary of producing live, professional, contemporary theatre in Calgary.

    We create world-class contemporary theatre that blurs the line between the audience and the artist, by telling the most provocative and engaging stories of our time.

    By embracing the intimacy and unique audience configuration opportunities of the Martha Cohen Theatre, we offer an exciting new experience for our audience with each production.

    Alberta Theatre Projects is a Calgary-based, not-for-profit, professional theatre company that celebrates the art of live theatre.

    The company produces world-calibre shows with a focus on idea-driven new works, plays by Canadian playwrights, and contemporary theatre from around the world.

    As Alberta Theatre Projects' sole CEO, the Executive & Artistic Director, will be responsible for both the business and artistic leadership of the company, including defining its artistic vision and mission.

    The role is accountable for creating and implementing a comprehensive strategic plan and involves working with the Senior Management Team to provide programming, financial and business planning, marketing and communications, fund development, and facility management oversight for the whole company.

    Reporting directly to the Board of Directors, the Executive & Artistic Director will be an experienced leader who understands both the artistic and operational requirements of a not-for-profit arts organization and has experience in brand development, organizational process and structure best practices, and collaborative planning.

    The ideal candidate will continue to define and raise Alberta Theatre Projects' profile locally and nationally, sustaining and improving strategies to secure the company's long-term financial stability, increase organizational resiliency, and ensure its artistic legacy.

    Work collaboratively with the Senior Management Team and Board of Directors to lead and implement a strategic planning cycle for the organization that identifies short and long term artistic and organizational goals.

    Lead and act as ambassador for the organization, developing a strategic corporate culture and effectively communicating it to align with the brand, vision, mission, and values.

    Oversee Alberta Theatre Projects' producing model (process) and program seasons (product) of new Canadian work in collaboration with the Senior Management Team to ensure balance between Alberta Theatre Projects' artistic direction and financial stability.

    Act as the lead spokesperson for the company with members of government, public funders, unions, other trade and professional organizations, corporate sponsors, major private supporters, and the media.

    In collaboration with the Artistic Team's advice, approve and select producing partnerships and creative teams for the development and production of projects.

    Build and maintain positive working relationships through effective influence with industry partners, stakeholders (public and private funders) and producing partners (venue partners, co-producers and presenters).

    Lead the process of timely grant application preparation and reporting in collaboration with the Senior Management Team.

    Represent Alberta Theatre Projects' vision, mission, values and brand locally, nationally, and internationally to inspire support for Alberta Theatre Projects' work.
