Orchestras Live is seeking a Business Development and Innovation Manager to provide strategic leadership, build and manage a sales pipeline with products and services that will generate new sources of income.
Orchestras Live believes orchestras are for everyone. We are a national charity and producer, and create projects where music and creativity can thrive. We work to ensure all communities across England have access to worldclass orchestral experiences.
For 60 years we have worked with artistic and community partners on innovative and developmental approaches to developments such as cocreation, placemaking, community cohesion, health and wellbeing, orchestral programming and presentation, digital production, diversity and inclusion and cultural regeneration in historically underinvested areas. Through our achievements we have built a reputation as a leader for the sector.
We receive funding from Arts Council England as a National Portfolio Organisation. Our other principal funding sources are co-investment from local partners (local authorities, music education hubs, community organisations) and grants from private trusts and foundations and public bodies.
Orchestras Live’s Business Plan Income Generation Strategy aims to diversify income across three key pillars: Funding Development, Partnership Investment and Business Development and Innovation.
The aim of the Business Development and Innovation strand is to capitalise on our expertise to contribute financially to Orchestras Live, enabling us to achieve greater impact and increase our financial resilience. Launched in 2024 it has successfully brought an initial service offer to market and achieved wide recognition in the cultural sector. We are poised to develop further products and services which apply our specialist knowledge, directly addressing current needs, challenges and opportunities in the orchestral sector and beyond.
