Environmental Emergencies Action Researcher

Salary: £36,000 per annum

Watershed is looking for someone with excellent organising and empowerment skills, to implement an ambitious programme of work about how creative companies face climate emergency. You may be a researcher or producer, but you will understand how to design and deliver a programme that will apply industry and university research in a real-world context.

This role will be based in Watershed’s Creative Team and will work closely with the Research Lead, Executive Producer and General Manager to design and deliver the work.

We are looking for someone who will be self-motivating and nuanced in their understanding of the issues at play and work collaboratively to see how changes can be facilitated, or toolkits shared. You may not have worked in a cultural organisation before or a setting like Watershed but have transferable experience from other sectors or places. We want someone who is sensitive to the community but isn’t afraid to ask uncomfortable questions to consider how that community might flourish under a climate emergency.

Please note that this is a fixed term contract of 18 months.
