We’re recruiting for our new Fun Palaces Co-ordinator…

• Do you believe that everyone is creative?
• And that everyone (and every community) has a right to have their cultural life celebrated and respected?

• Do you want a flexible, varied, inspiring job that you can make your own? 
• Are you good at organising and bringing people together?

• Are you excited by administration with excellent attention to detail?

• Do you care about people, their stories, their cultures, their passions, their issues? 

If your answer to all these questions is yes – you are probably the person we need. 

We are looking for a Co-ordinator to support the organisation and administration of our busy 5 person team based in London.

Fun Palaces is a campaign to make the cultural sector fairer, more inclusive, richer and more fun, via year round campaigning and an annual weekend of celebration. We strive to celebrate everyone’s cultural life, everyone’s voice, everyone’s uniqueness. So, we take care of each other at work, develop our roles around the people in them, and respect people’s lives beyond the workplace.  We are very aware of the structural disadvantages faced by marginalised communities across the sector. If you are someone who experiences racism, sexism, ableism, classism, homophobia or transphobia, then we actively want to hear from you.

Job title: Fun Palaces Co-ordinator 
Pay scale: This position is currently employed with a daily rate of £160 per day
Contract: Fixed Term, freelance, until 31st March 2025 
Hours: This is a part time role, two days per week. There is some flexibility in how these hours are worked, but you will be expected to work on Tuesdays.
Location: You will be expected to work from our Deptford office once a week on Tuesdays (9am – 5pm or 10am – 6pm), and wherever you like apart from that. As Fun Palaces is a national (and international) campaign, travel across the UK is an essential part of the job. 

Fun Palaces functions as a discrete ring-fenced project within the Albany, and is based at the Albany. The Fun Palaces Co-ordinator will therefore be contracted by the Albany.
