Work With Us

Battersea Arts Centre (BAC) is a home for radical artistic ideas. We support artists, young people and communities to spark positive change through their creativity in many different ways, and this social purpose is central to everything we do. Based in an iconic building at the heart of Battersea, our work revolves around an ambitious live and digital programme of performance, heritage, events, and creative and community projects. Projects developed at BAC can also be found in our communities and on tour across the UK and the world.

BAC has around 50 permanent members of staff, who are supported through a mix of line management, in-house coaching and mentoring. We offer flexible and remote working, as well as a chill out space to take time out during work hours. Other benefits include a cycle to work scheme, free tickets to our shows, and Development Days for training and professional development. We also engage up to 100 casual and freelance staff at any one time.

When we have jobs and opportunities to offer, we share them here. To apply for a role, please complete the relevant online application form below.

We particularly welcome applicants with lived experience of disability and people from groups that are currently under-represented in the arts sector. For further information or support with access requirements for your application, contact us at recruitment@bac.org.uk.

How we use Equal Opportunity data 

In your application we request that you answer a series of Equal Opportunity questions. The information you provide is not accessible by anyone outside of the BAC People Team and is used solely for monitoring our recruitment processes; it will not inform the selection process.  

The only exception to this is to allow us to fulfil our promise as a Disability Confident Employer, where possible, offering an interview to all candidates meeting the minimum criteria who disclose a disability. Again, the data will remain confidential and only with the People Team 

If you would rather not answer any or all the questions, you are welcome to select or write “prefer not to say”.  

We ask these questions to help us measure how we are meeting our access and inclusion aims, as Battersea Arts Centre is committed to equality of opportunity for all job applicants and employees. The Equal Opportunities data from all our vacancies will be routinely pooled, anonymised, and then analysed, to measure our engagement with different demographics. We will then use this information to update and improve our outreach efforts in our processes. 

 

Stance on AI 

At BAC we understand that AI can be used as an access tool to aid with writing job applications. For those using AI programmes for their application, we ask that you make sure your answers reflect you and your work, and don’t simply mirror the job description or specification back to us.
