The successful candidate will have the following:

Experience in creating and delivering public programming activity in a heritage, museum, gallery or commercial setting with a high degree of confidence in public speaking and interacting with audiences.
Demonstrable understanding of how public engagement activities support the artistic and commercial goals of the National Theatre.
Excellent research skills with a keen interest in the history of the National Theatre, the Southbank and the wider UK arts sector.
Excellent verbal and writing skills, with a high level of accuracy in English.
Experience in planning and delivering events, with a clear understanding of the role of logistics, timekeeping and resourcing in such activity.
