Our culture is creative, diverse and aspirational.

Our programmes instil curiosity and empathy, aspiration and self-esteem, literacy and teamwork; giving young people from every community and background the confidence to stride onto whatever stage they choose.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all sections of the community. We encourage applicants from global majority backgrounds and D/deaf and disabled people to join our team.

Whilst we have a diverse team, we recognise we are a predominantly white workforce and are committed to encouraging candidates from diverse communities in order to improve the programmes we deliver with young people and schools.

We are committed to the safeguarding of children and where appropriate will require successful applicants to undertake a check from the Disclosure and Barring Service.

  • Project Coordinator

    We are seeking a Project Coordinator to lead the delivery of an exciting new three-year programme funded by the Inner Circle Education Trust (ICET). Working in partnership with universities, theatres, Virtual Schools and specialist organisations, you will coordinate an ambitious programme that uses Shakespeare and the performing arts to support care-experienced young people to develop the confidence, skills and aspirations to progress into higher education and beyond.

    Alongside delivering this innovative project, you will help shape and grow our wider work with Virtual Schools, using learning from the programme to strengthen opportunities for care-experienced young people as part of the Opportunity Unlocked pillar of our 2030 Strategy.

    Coram Shakespeare Schools is based at the Coram Campus in central London. The role is hybrid, with regular travel across the UK required to support programme delivery and partnership development.

    About you

    We are looking for an organised, collaborative and solutions-focused individual with experience coordinating projects involving multiple partners and stakeholders. You will be equally comfortable building relationships, managing the logistics of high-quality programme delivery and supporting the development of new opportunities and partnerships.

    You’ll share our belief in the transformative power of the arts for young people and bring excellent organisational, communication and problem-solving skills. You will join a creative and ambitious organisation where you can make a lasting impact while developing your skills as part of a supportive and dynamic team.
