Salary: £42,000 – £45,000 per annum (pro rata)
Deadline: 18 May 2026
Interview Date: Week commencing 25 May
Join Candoco Dance Company at this exciting time for the organisation! Candoco is seeking an exceptional senior producer who combines artistic vision with an entrepreneurial mindset for this strategic leadership role.

You will lead the Performance and Commissions pillar, one of four pillars in Candoco’s strategic framework (the others being Skills and Leadership, Advocacy, and Partnerships).

Programmes within the Performance and Commissions pillar are Choreo Accelerator, our flagship producing programme, and Motion Shorts, a digital commissioning programme.

You will be responsible for the full business model of the Performance and Commissions pillar, managing artist and partner relationships, income generation, expenditure and delivery and ensuring the programmes align with Candoco’s strategic ambitions.

You will also contribute your expertise to support work sitting under the Partnerships pillar, and play a central role in how Candoco makes curatorial decisions as a member of our Artistic Assembly, which is convened to inform artist selection across our programmes.

The Performance and Commissions pillar is instrumental to our transition from a touring ensemble to a producing company with the Choreo Accelerator at the heart of that shift.
