We are looking to grow our Events Program in 2011 and are now interviewing to select someone who is keen to play a significant role in helping the Australian Poetry Centre to develop this program.
The selected candidate will be offered an initial internship to learn more about the Australian Poetry Centre, what we do and how we work, which will include assisting the current Events Manager in delivering APC’s 2010 Events Program and assisting in the planning for 2011. At the end of the internship, if successful, a paid position will be negotiated. It is important the right person for this role understand that we are keen to build a diverse inclusive program of events which is innovative, collaborative, sustainable and exciting to APC members and the general poetry community, as well as being attractive to new audiences in order to expose more Australians to poetry and raise the profile of poets, poetry and the Australian Poetry Centre.

This is the perfect opportunity for someone who is keen to curate a program of national events, based at the Australian Poetry Centre’s home within the new literary hub of Melbourne, the Wheeler Centre.
