Jobs & Call-outs

We are a small core team of employees that expands as projects require.

Our staff work predominantly from home for computer-based work, coming together for meetings and practical delivery as required.

Many of our projects require artists, producers, workshop leaders, designers and other freelance contractors to support us in delivering our work. Here we advertise any of our open calls to creatives for project-based roles.


Freelance Producer call-out

We are looking for an experienced community producer to deliver an exciting new project, Nature Together in Kempston, which follows on from our successful River/Flow/Connect project. It will build on our work already delivered in Kempston by continuing to strengthen and develop connections between the community and the riverbank.

Nature Together aims to help people connect both with nature and each other and provide momentum in this community to retain a connection to the river while we explore how to install creative arts installations along the riverbank.

Through a series of hybrid sessions, participants will co-create a Community Environmental Charter focused on the riverbank in Kempston, capturing shared values and actions to protect the local environment.
