Director of Outreach Education

CityDance Ensemble seeks a dance education professional to manage its extensive outreach division. Responsibilities include:

2) Develop and maintain outreach program curriculums that support the National Standards of Dance Education
3) Hire and manage teaching staff
4) Build and manage relationships with school administrators, program partners, and funders
5) Conduct regular evaluations of programs, including teacher and staff performance reviews, curriculum, school contracts and partnerships
6) Prepare and reconcile outreach education budget on a monthly basis
7) Work with Executive Director, Artistic Director and Development Director on fundraising initiatives

The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of success in building and directing dance outreach programs. A bachelor’s degree in dance/arts administration is a plus but not a requirement.

Salary is commensurate with experience.
