<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;background:white">Cleveland Public Theatre (CPT) is hiring a Director of Audience Engagement & Marketing, which is a core part of CPT’s leadership team and will make a meaningful contribution to life at CPT and
its success. CPT will be accepting applications for this position until the role is filled with a start date goal between 3/1/22 and 4/15/22.</span><span style="background:white"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><a href="https://www.cptonline.org/uncategorized/cleveland-public-theatre-is-hiring-a-director-of-audience-engagement-marketing/?dm_i=4W7A,G7LY,24EHA3,1QD0Q,1">https://www.cptonline.org/uncategorized/cleveland-public-theatre-is-hiring-a-director-of-audience-engagement-marketing/?dm_i=4W7A,G7LY,24EHA3,1QD0Q,1</a>
<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>DESCRIPTION OF POSITION</b><span style="color:black;background:white"><br>
</span>The Director of Audience Engagement & Marketing oversees CPT’s audience engagement, marketing, and promotional initiatives towards the goals of building audience, expanding the reach of CPT artistic and education programming regionally and nationwide,
and deepening our relationship with audience members and community stakeholders. CPT is less interested in “ticket sales” than in gathering together the many communities of the Cleveland region. This position is a year-round, salaried staff position. Reporting
to the Executive Artistic Director, the Director of Audience Engagement & Marketing is a key member of the senior management team and works closely with the General Manager, Education Director, Director Organizational Advancement, Associate Artistic Director,
and the Technical Director, as well as cross-departmentally.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>JOB REQUIREMENTS</b> <br>
The position seeks a highly-motivated, experienced theatre arts administrator with superb written and verbal communication skills, experience working with diverse communities, and a passion for the arts. Adaptability, professionalism, grace-under-pressure,
imagination, willingness to embrace and incorporate feedback, and fluency in MS Word, Excel, basic HTML, and various social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) required. Experience with database management software and photo/video/graphic editing
software strongly preferred. Experience in arts administration is a must, with a minimum of 3 years of work in professional theatre or related creative professions, consistent freelance work, or equivalent. CPT primarily produces theatrical work that is outside-of-the-mainstream,
so a history of such work may indicate a good fit.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>CPT is seeking a storyteller with outstanding writing, editing, and communication skills. The position requires strong organizational abilities, attention to detail, a passion for the arts and the mission of CPT, and a desire to grow
and learn new skills. The successful candidate will be curious, collaborative, imaginative, adaptable and flexible, and have experience working with a diverse range of constituents.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All positions at CPT work across departmental lines and the Director of Audience Engagement & Marketing is involved in nearly all aspects of the theatre. Job responsibilities may include (but are not limited to) the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
