Engagement and Placemaking Manager
Irish Architecture Foundation is recruiting for a Engagement and Placemaking Manager
The Engagement and Placemaking Manager role is a unique opportunity to both sustain and develop the placemaking work of the Irish Architecture Foundation. We need an individual with passion, commitment and imagination who wishes to expand the possibilities and deepen the impacts of socially engaged placemaking projects in Ireland. The IAF has the capacity, resources and commitment to also develop and support individuals to thrive in their own practices while working within our organisation.
The Engagement and Placemaking Manager is a full-time role, working as a co-lead of the IAF Place / Reimagine Programmes and as part of a dynamic team working across all strands towards expanding and engaging audiences for architecture. This is an exciting role, central in developing a world-leading programme of events and initiatives working with architects, artists and the public across the island of Ireland.
The Engagement and Placemaking Manager will be passionate about high-quality architecture programming and contributing to the IAF’s position at the forefront of national and international debates relevant to alternative and experimental practice in the built environment. While taking over and managing some existing programmes, the role requires the Engagement and Placemaking Manager to devise and deliver new initiatives that promote collaborative architecture as a dynamic, vibrant contemporary practice, drawing on established networks, collaborations, and alternative practice, in collaborative arts, architecture and community-led design.
