Background
Strategic Cultural Partnerships Manager
I manage and support strategic University partnerships in the cultural and creative industries. As a member of the University's Business Development and Enterprise team, I am working closely with Dean of Culture and Creative Arts to scope current cultural partnership activity and identify potential areas for strategic development.
As part of this role, I primarily manage institutional relationships with a portfolio of cultural partners. I also work on strategic cultural projects, and with key policy and funding partners around the creative industries.
