The role:

Shakespeare's Globe is seeking an inspiring Youth Theatre and Learning Manager to manage our established Youth Theatre programme: Globe Youth Theatre | Shakespeare's Globe.

This is a truly exciting opportunity to have an educational and social impact on our cohort of c.200 Globe Youth Theatre members through your skills in arts administration and project management.

The Youth Theatre and Learning Manager position sits within the award-winning Learning team with two primary areas of responsibility:

1. Overseeing the operations of our thriving Globe Youth Theatre, which runs every Saturday during term time and, as of September 2026, will serve c.200 young people aged 8-19, with c.10 staff on site.

2.  Alongside this, the postholder also makes an important contribution to the smooth running of the wider Learning team as a line manager and part of the team’s leadership group.

NOTE: This is a programme management role, not a facilitation or session-delivery role, so you won’t be delivering sessions/workshops to the young people - sessions are delivered by our wonderful freelance Globe Education Practitioners. You will oversee the operations and quality of provision.

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing the schedule, staffing, and other key operations for our weekly youth theatre sessions on Saturdays for c.200 members and c.10 staff (this programme is established, so you will not need to build these from scratch, but will be responsible for ensuring their continued smooth running).

• Commitment to continuous improvement, of self, of staff, of service.

Work pattern:

• Fixed term contract for 12 months. A full set of terms and conditions will be supplied with a contract of employment.
• The work pattern for this role is Tuesday to Saturday, 9am to 5pm.
• 35 per week, exclusive of breaks, Additional hours at evenings and weekends may be required for which time in lieu may be granted. There are no extra payments for additional hours worked.
• Holiday: The annual holiday leave is 25 days per calendar year (full-time equivalent) plus Bank Holidays. One day of additional annual leave every service anniversary up to 28 days (full-time equivalent).

• First round interviews: Wednesday 16th September, Thursday 17th September, Friday 18th September.

The team:

The Education Department:

Education is at the heart of Shakespeare’s Globe. We run a year-round programme of activities, courses and events for schools, families, young people, universities, drama schools, scholars and the general public, both on and off-stage. Activities are aligned with values of social justice, access and Shakespeare for all, and delivered by the teams which make up this department: Learning, Education Producing, Higher Education, and Research & Collections.
