About Us

Art27 Scotland is Scotland’s leading organisation promoting cultural rights through practice and policy. We are an artist-led, community-driven organization promoting arts and culture for the common good. Our mission and methodology are rooted in Article 27 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), which states that “everyone has the right freely to participate in the cultural life of the community, to enjoy the arts and to share in scientific advancement and its benefits.”

We explore culture as an essential human right. We curate and produce a multi-artform program of exhibitions, performances, and events that respond to the urgent global shifts of our time. Through artistic commissions, socially engaged community projects, and cultural democracy facilitation, we work to make cultural rights a tangible reality.

The Role

This is a senior management position that will require a creative mindset with practical ability to deliver. We are seeking a collaborative, community-minded Company Producer to join our team. In this role, you will manage the end-to-end delivery of our multi-arts programs outlined in our annual plan and contribute to the development of funding streams and partnerships for future projects. Art27 Scotland is a small team of Embedded Artist, General Manager and Culture Collective Co-ordinator. During project delivery the team expands and contracts significantly during these peak periods throughout the year.

You will report to the Board on a regular basis to discuss the programme and budgets and address any challenges arising.

You will have a line management and support role for key staff ensuring regular 1-1s and clear communication across the organisation.

You will be the key liaison for projects and partnerships, bridging the gap between artistic ideas, partners, funding and project logistics. You will ensure our co-creation processes are safe, ethical, and highly accessible.

This is a role for a creatively minded producer who values the human process of making art just as much as essential high production values of the final presentation.
