Want to come and help us manage the digital program (amongst other things...)?
The Australia Council is currently advertising a Project Management post to work across Major Performing Arts and Arts Organisations. That's where the digital program sits, so whoever gets this post will spend some of their time working with me to develop our projects.
If it were my call, I'd have you all say in 140 characters why you think you'd be the best digital project manager ever, but, well, it's not... So if you're serious you should probably just do what they ask, below.
Pass it on!
