DESCRIPTION
Interviews starting: 13 May 2024
Role: Up to full-time
Beginning Date: As soon as possible
Catalyst – Institute for Creative Arts and Technology is an international learning community, based at the iconic Funkhaus in the creative media metropolis of Berlin. Organised into a School of Music & Sound, School of Film & Visual Media, and School of Acting, our diverse and ever-growing bachelor's and master’s degree programmes are based on the values and concepts of progressive, project-based education whilst complying with the rigorous requirements of a UK university qualification.
Aiming to become the international creative production and performance learning institution of choice, we encourage students to push their creative boundaries way beyond what they thought possible, at the same time engaging with their personal growth as a human being. Simply put, we aim to provide them with a set of skills that allows them to flourish whilst manifesting their interests and their unique greatness more powerfully in the wider world. With students from over 75 different countries, our creative community is a working environment that is international and multicultural.
What are we looking for?
A team member
Moving beyond outmoded ways of working together, striving toward a conscious people-centred culture, we operate in a distributed leadership model, which we can describe in more detail in-person. We are excited to invite team members who have the courage to bring more of their own interests, insights, and backgrounds to the mix.
Whilst the aims of the school are what bring us together, what keeps us together in our dynamic community is the idea that people can bring more of their authentic selves and not just their “professional” selves to the workplace.
A Music School Lead
We are currently going through an organisational redevelopment in order to prepare ourselves for the next stage of growth. This role will play a significant part in that redevelopment. You will be part of a small senior team working alongside our director to drive forward change, alignment with the organisational vision and an effective operation that delivers a high quality student experience.

About you
The more of the following qualities/experiences you have the better, but don’t get put off applying if you’re missing anything!
The successful candidate will likely have at least five years of teaching experience and a Master's degree with senior experience within higher education.
What you can expect from us
We offer a working environment where learning and exchange are invited and encouraged. Within our vibrant creative community, we share a lively and flexible work environment. By design, the working environment invites fuller expression of yourself, taking initiative in shaping your own role(s), and opening up possibilities to develop yourself as a senior team member.
Part of what animates our work together is trying to find ways of delivering a progressive and rigorous education to our students, whilst centring community and belonging. We therefore strongly encourage applications from those who would traditionally be excluded from an educational institution. For Catalyst that means we envision a constellation of team members that is diverse in its gender, race, class, ability, age and sexual orientation backgrounds.
