Culture and Creative Health Evaluation Lead
We are looking for a passionate and enthusiastic individual to join Croydon’s Culture and Creative Health teams to lead on evaluation of these two wide ranging and ambitious programmes.
Creative Health
Working closely with Croydon’s Public Health team, the Creative Health team supports local artists and organisations to expand delivery of this crucial work through four main strands:
- Creative Health Network – providing networking opportunities, free training, fundraising support and strategic oversight to 170+ individuals and organisations interested in Creative Health in Croydon
- Community Grants – delivering grant schemes to provide seed-funding to support local Creative Health events and projects
- Targeted Interventions – managing the development of new Creative Health interventions tackling complex local priorities with cross-sector stakeholders
- Advocating for the Sector – linking with Health, Social Care and other partners to increase support, uptake and alignment of Creative Health initiatives with the broadest range of stakeholders
Evaluation of this programme will include measuring the impact of these interventions for participating residents in addition to engaging with community, cultural, health and care partners to evaluate the growth and experiences of the local sector.
Cultural Activations
The Culture team delivers an annual programme of festivals, events, grants, commissions and public realm interventions to support the regeneration of Croydon town centre.
With a strategic focus to develop pride in Croydon, attract more people to the town centre and support economic growth through cultural activations and engagement, evaluation of this programme will include engagement with audiences, community groups, cultural delivery partners, local businesses and artists, in addition to working with high street datasets to analyse impact.
The role
The Culture & Creative Health Evaluation Lead will review and develop current evaluation practice across the two programmes ensuring we have robust evidence-based frameworks and data to assess impact and monitor outcomes. This role will also lead on-the-ground data collection for events and advise and train funded partners on monitoring, reporting and evaluation for their own projects.
The role will also play a key part in managing reporting to funders across both programmes.
The successful candidate will have excellent knowledge of cultural and creative health delivery and evaluation practice and be experienced applying this in community contexts. You will be flexible and able to adapt methodologies to best fit the project needs whilst ensuring data and evaluation outputs are robust. Digital and analytical skills are also important to analyse complex data sets, reporting tools and multiple sources of information.
Experience working with a broad range of partners and with culturally diverse communities and people with different needs is essential and you will require good relationship building skills and be confident and proactive in engaging with people. The successful candidate will also demonstrate experience working with and/or advocating for arts and cultural activities with health, social care and other statutory services, including translating and communicating data in diverse ways to meet the expectations of different sectors.
As a small team, candidates will also need to be able to work proactively and independently, taking ownership for the monitoring and reporting outputs across the programme.
This role is an opportunity to make a huge difference in London’s most populous borough demonstrating the impact of the arts for our health, wellbeing and economic growth.
