Description

We are looking for a passionate, high-performing candidate to help grow two exciting and creative businesses. This golden opportunity will open up a wide range of creative jobs to the successful candidate.

Who are we?
London Fields Design School is an alternative to university for those looking to develop a career in the creative industries. We believe in creating equal opportunities for all, linking our network of creative companies with emerging talent. Our Designer Development Course is a career-focused course for career-changers, school-leavers, and an enhancement for those already working in design. We're proud to have delivered close to100% employment rate to our graduates.

London Software Training provides industry-standard design software courses and consultancy to designers. Our clients include The British Museum, The V & A, The National Theatre, Universal Music, Burberry and Soho House as well as a wide range of design, engineering and architectural firms. Both businesses work in partnership, helping those who are looking for work and those creative companies searching for new talent.

We're partnered with London Youth and Hackney Council to provide free courses to those seeking inspiration and motivation in gaining creative experience and employment.

What is the role?
This position is an incredible opportunity to help manage our beautiful, light-filled studio in London Fields. You will be a pivotal part of the team, communicating with clients and students as well as ensuring the smooth running of courses.

This role will include the £9000 Designer Development Course at London Fields Design School as part-reimbursement to the successful candidate.
