FIELD BAND LOOKING FOR YOUNG ARTS PROJECT MANAGERS


Deadline: October 26, 2018.

The Field Band Foundation (FBF) is looking for young, energetic, results-driven individuals who seek to be part of a dynamic organisation that is both expanding and deepening its influence on the youth development sector.

Suitable candidates must be willing to work in a high paced environment, report with accuracy, be able to multitask and dynamic enough to lead a small team of people.

:We need people who are passionate about music and dance as a means to social and youth development and who want to be part of creative solutions that have a meaningful impact on young people’s lives,” says Nicolette du Plessis, FBF Executive Officer.

The FBF is an organisation that cares for the development of its people and frequent and varied on-the-job training is constantly provided, but ultimately this is an opportunity only for people who take themselves seriously as professionals.

It’s a chance to kick-start a career, to deepen leadership skills and also to develop a national network as the FBF works in seven out of nine provinces.

Candidates are required to:-

-be computer literate with basic Word, Excel and emailing skills
-hold a valid driver’s licence

-have good use of the English language
