Jobs
Kingswood Arts is a former stately home nestled within the Kingswood housing estate in Dulwich, South London. After some years as a library and then vacant, the house is being reopened and redeveloped into a mixed-use community arts centre and wedding/events venue, supported by Hartshorn Hook Enterprises.
We are keen to attract a diverse applicant pool, and we are aware that some under-represented groups are typically less likely to apply for jobs unless they are sure they comfortably meet all the criteria. With this in mind, we encourage all potential candidates to reflect on their strengths and experience in the broadest sense, including transferable skills where appropriate, when considering their suitability for the position. In all cases, we will select the best candidate for the role.
We value doing good things with good people and believe that the work process is as important as the outcome of the work itself. We’re focussed on finding team members with personality, enthusiasm, spirit and loyalty, who want to make work fun and make fun work. Skills can be taught and progressed: what matters at Kingswood Arts is the spirit and attitude of the team.
