Midweight Designer – Craft Manchester

Deadline – unspecified, apply here

You’ll design brands from strategy through to platform execution, moving fluidly between concept and final delivery across static and motion. The expectation is consistent whether you’re working on a global cultural institution or a compelling mid-scale brief: conceptually strong, beautifully finished.

Your canvas spans the full spectrum of brand design – evolving identities, building platforms, bringing brands to life across multiple touchpoints. You’ll work in After Effects and Figma with equal confidence, maintaining quality whether you’re sketching early thinking or polishing final executions. This is a role where you’re expected to contribute ideas, not just execute them.

You’ll be part of a focused creative team within a studio that positions itself not just as working in culture, but genuinely shaping it, reporting to an experienced Creative Director in an environment built around working with exceptional talent.

Early Career Promoter Fund – PRS Foundation

The Early Career Promoter Fund is open again for applications after a successful first year of the programme. For the latest advice see the ‘How to Make a Strong Application’ webinar with Grants & Programmes Manager Ben Price on the PRS YouTube channel here.

Early Career Promoter Fund recognises the vital role independent promoters play in supporting the talent pipeline across England, and offers grant funding and capacity building support, with the aim of bolstering the local, regional and national ecosystems.

Grants of up to £3,500 will be available to support a range of activity, including:

  • The booking, programming and promotion of gigs, concerts, club nights, showcases, tours and other performances
  • Costs associated with those activities (including venue hire, production, artist and/or DJ fees, crew fees, administration and other related costs)
  • Capacity building (including mentoring, coaching, shadowing, workshops, masterclasses, and other skill building and networking opportunities)
  • Other expenditure which helps grantees to programme a diverse range of artists, develop new audiences and build their skills

The fund aims to help emerging promoters to do what they do best – book and promote shows to develop scenes, support artists and DJs and to reach and engage audiences locally, regionally, and nationally, and build sustainable careers in the grassroots music sector. Those receiving support will be able to step up to book and promote talent at a scale beyond their current level, and build their capacity, skills and networks.

Managed by PRS Foundation and supported by Arts Council England and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), the Early Career Promoter Fund also helps to address under representation, ensuring support reaches a diverse range of promoters, and proactively encourages grantees to support a diverse range of artists and music genres nationwide.
