TPM is Hiring: Managing Director (Deadline)

Loading map...

We are seeking a Managing Director who is a strong co-leader and can bring stable yet visionary leadership to the administrative portfolio of the company. This is not an artistic position but it is a CREATIVE position. Our Managing Director will be someone who understands that creative risk is where the magic happens and will ensure that these leaps of faith are supported by responsible management.

TPM functions in a co-leadership model where each Director has their own area of focus and expertise, but both are working closely on most aspects of the company’s operations. That said, because we are a small company, both the Artistic and Managing Directors are required to do a lot of hands-on work to execute their vision.

This position is based in the Theatre Projects Manitoba office and can accommodate a mix of in person and remote work. It requires interaction with other staff, external venues/ partner organizations, and the public.

-This is a full time, position under a 3 year contract with option to renew. Hours of work/Schedule: 35 hours per week; flexible and variable – some evening and weekend work is required.

- 4-weeks paid vacation

- Salary range: $52,000-$56,000 commensurate to experience

- Opportunity to participate in TPM’s benefits program

- Start Date: August 2025 exact date to be mutually agreed

The following qualifications/experience are ESSENTIAL in this position:

- A love of the performing arts.

- Strong strategic thinking and decision-making abilities.

- Enthusiasm for empowering staff to achieve priorities; ability to lead a team and inspire leadership in others.

- Excellent project management skills.

- Creative problem solving and resourcefulness both independently and in collaboration with others.

- Strong financial management skills and some experience in creating, managing, presenting, and interpreting budgets.

- Excellent stakeholder management skills.

- A track record of positive fundraising, sponsor and donor stewardship, and acumen in researching and writing grants.

- Ability to forge partnerships and cultivate support from the private sector.

- Experience in Canada’s professional performing arts ecosystem (familiarity with the Manitoba theatre scene an asset).

- Exceptional communications skills, both written and verbal.

- Fluency with Microsoft Office suite.
