An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the team at the Bernie Grant Arts Centre as the new General Manager and help shape the future of this extraordinary venue in Tottenham, North London.

The purpose-built complex includes a 274 seat and fully equipped auditorium, multi-purpose studio spaces, a boutique cinema, a clustering of 20 enterprise units, and an award-winning café and bar.
