  • Design and implement rigorous programs that support undergraduate and graduate level art and art history students to develop capacities in museum practice.

  • Conceive and coordinate programming that shapes the Gallery's profile:
    • Collaborate with the curatorial team to generate innovative, meaningful opportunities for global and local audiences to connect to each other and the community of NYU Abu Dhabi.
    • Produce events, which may include performances, talks, workshops, and more experimental formats for cultural exchange.
  • Develop campaigns to reach new audiences for the University, the exhibitions, and the programs.
Stakeholder Development and Partnerships
  • Cultivate relationships and partnerships that further the mission of the institution, in terms of reputation and sustainability.
  • Manage a stakeholder development program that engages a full range of potential sponsors and advocates, from alumni to cultural leaders and advisors.
Reporting on Gallery Activities
  • Generate meaningful and compelling presentations and reports that tell the story of the department to our constituents, including the community, leadership, stakeholders, funders, and advisors.

  8. Evaluating and processing data to tell a story about that data through reports and presentations
Preferred Qualifications

We are particularly interested in candidates with:

  1. More than 7 years of experience directing content production to convey 'big ideas' (videos, graphic design, etc.)
  2. Experience working with sponsors and donors, stewardship, cultivation, etc.
  3. Experience managing people and teams
  4. Fluency in Arabic

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, as well as the opportunity to work with a dynamic and innovative team in a world-class institution.
