Applications are now open for LTC and MOBO Fellowship 2020

The London Theatre Consortium (LTC), in partnership with the MOBO organisation, are looking to appoint Executive Fellowships to address the lack of diversity at executive level in UK theatre buildings.

Nature of Fellowship 
Up to 4 fellowships will be offered for 6-12 months from January 2020. Identifying mid-career highly-skilled theatre producing, administration and management talent, the objective is to demystify the Executive leadership of major London theatres, to mentor and support mid-career thinking, and provide pathways for emerging producing and management talent towards leadership.

The Fellowships will offer:

  • Attendance at LTC meetings
  • Bespoke access to and mentoring by the Executive Directors / Executive Producers across the 14 member theatres including shadowing opportunities
  • A session with Kanya King, MOBO Awards founder
  • Attendance at opening nights at member theatres
  • Attendance and introductions at key sector events
  • The fellows will form a cohort to support one another during and after the Fellowships are complete
  • The Fellowships are significantly self-led. Fellows can create particular opportunities to suit their interests, ambitions and needs.

Aimed at mid-career professionals in existing arts roles who are primarily from diverse backgrounds and who have an interest in pursuing an Executive leadership position. Applicants will have demonstrated potential and show a high level of knowledge, commitment and ambition in their chosen field.

All candidates will be invited to express their interest with a letter and CV submitted to: organisationltc@gmail.com by 5pm on Friday November 1st 2019. Interviews shall take place in London on Friday November 8th 2019. The Fellowships will begin in January 2020 and run until December 2020. However, the timeframe is fairly open and it is our ambition that we continue a relationship with all Fellows going forwards.
