of WTS Director

Applications close midnight Sunday 3 June

The Director role is exciting and varied. In 2024, WTS’ operational model will be reimagined with a Director and part time support staff steering the creative and operational direction of the organisation.

The role requires strong arts administration skills, creative direction and community focus. With the support and collaboration of an Exhibitions Officer, you will coordinate and oversee all aspects of the exhibition, residency, events and special projects program, artists' studios, venue and budget management and financial reporting as well as other creative projects. You will work autonomously and collaboratively, with support staff, the WTS Board, Curatorial Committee, First Nations advisory group, members, studio artists and volunteers. This is an incredibly rewarding role with a high degree of responsibility and the potential to contribute to the artistic and cultural life of the region.

The successful applicant will be involved in defining strategies for the organisation’s next chapter as 2025 marks the second round of our multi-year funding agreement with Australia Council for the Arts. Our aims are to nurture non-commercial, experimental artistic practice in Central Australia; improve access and participation in the arts; contribute to local and national sector development; and increase organisational sustainability.
