Working closely with the Artistic Director and wider team of JAM (John Armitage Memorial Trust), the Operations and Administration Manager will help keep the organisation running smoothly across operations, artist liaison, systems, fundraising support, communications and event delivery.

Alongside its year-round work, JAM produces JAM on the Marsh, a distinctive multi-arts festival rooted in Romney Marsh, Kent. Bringing world-class music, theatre, film and art into medieval churches, community spaces and unexpected settings, it has grown from a single concert into one of the UK's most distinctive summer festivals: international in quality and local in spirit. Performers include VOCES8, The King's Singers, Alexander Armstrong, BBC Singers, the Britten Sinfonia, Changeling Theatre and the London Tango Quintet. Year-round JAM runs community art and singing projects, enabling our Marsh residents to flourish in this typically arts-deprived area. Training and Support JAM is not looking for someone who already knows every system or every part of the job inside out. Substantial training will be provided on the job, and the successful candidate will be supported by an experienced team. We are looking for someone with the motivation and adaptability to learn quickly, ask good questions, and grow into the role. Person Specification Essential Excellent organisational skills and close attention to detail. Strong written and verbal communication. A warm, professional manner and the ability to build relationships with a wide range of people. Confidence managing multiple priorities and working across varied tasks. The ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a small team. Good digital literacy and confidence using standard office software. A motivated, flexible and solution-focused approach. Desirable Experience working in an arts, charity, education or events environment. Experience with CRM systems, ticketing platforms, email marketing platforms or database management. An interest in contemporary music, cultural projects or artist development.

Flexibility: the role combines home working with in-person collaboration.
