Strategic Partnerships and Development Manager

Pegasus Opera Company is seeking an entrepreneurial and commercially minded Strategic Partnership and Development Manager to grow earned and partnership income by unlocking the potential of Pegasus’s existing assets, networks and creating new income streams.

This is not a traditional fundraising role. The focus is on identifying where Pegasus already has something of value, our artists, productions, events, international relationships, audiences, networks and 30-year track record and turning those assets into sustainable income-generating opportunities.

The Strategic Partnerships and Development Manager will develop relationships across the corporate, cultural and philanthropic sectors and will be expected to deliver against agreed financial targets for new and earned income.

We are looking for someone who understands the opera and wider arts landscape, but who can also think beyond it: identifying where Pegasus can build mutually beneficial relationships with businesses, individuals and organisations that value creativity, exceptional artistic talent, diversity and social impact.

We actively encourage applications from individuals of Global Majority heritage and the successful applicant should have the confidence to advocate strongly on behalf of these communities at all levels.
