We are seeking two new members to join the Centre’s Advisory group for a minimum two-year term.

About the Advisory group and the role of members

The Advisory group has a key role to play in the development and implementation of the activities of the Centre for Cultural Value. It provides recommendations and relevant information to and from the sector to transform thinking, policy and professional practice on questions related to cultural value. The group meets online, twice each year.

Our Advisory group members include a cross-section of researchers, artists, practitioners, policymakers and leaders from different disciplines and sectors. They bring an important diversity of perspectives for the Centre to draw on.

The Centre for Cultural Value is committed to being inclusive and diverse. This means we would particularly welcome applications from people who are currently underrepresented in our group including people who:

  • experience racism (people from Black, Asian and minoritised backgrounds)
  • identify as D/deaf or disabled
  • are based outside of London and the South East of England

This is a voluntary role, however reasonable out of pocket expenses will be paid. We pay freelance or unsalaried members with a fixed rate payment of £175 for their time in preparing for and attending meetings.

For further information on the role please download our information pack.

How to express your interest

To express an interest in becoming a member of the Advisory group, please submit a CV or short summary of experience and a covering statement (300 words max) describing why you believe you could contribute to the success of the Centre for Cultural Value as a member of the Advisory group.

Alternatively, you can submit a 2 minute video as your statement.

Please submit your expression of interest by 29 October 2021 by email to  ccv@leeds.ac.uk

Informal interviews will be held in the week of the 8 November 2021 and will be conducted online.

If you have any questions or require information in an alternative format, please get in touch at  ccv@leeds.ac.uk

We look forward to hearing from you.
