CALL FOR NOMINATIONS FOR THE INTERIM KULTUR AB BOARD

Would you like to be a part of developing an organisation that creates better working and social conditions for cultural workers? Would you like to contribute to the development of an artist “employment cooperative” – a unique first-of-its-kind form of organisation for cultural workers that is set to meet the greatest challenge facing the arts in the contemporary “gig economy” – precarious work conditions?

Interim kultur is looking for new members for the company Board.

About Interim kultur

Interim kultur is a jointly owned infrastructure for administrating job assignments, employments, budgets and projects in arts and culture. Instead of running our own companies or associations, we have developed a solution together, starting from the desire to cooperatively promote better working conditions in an increasingly precarious labour market.

Based in Stockholm, Interim kultur consists of two legal entities. Firstly, a non-profit association that ensures members’ democratic control over their joint organisation, and secondly, a limited liability company which is owned by the association. The limited company manages and develops the business operations and has a special dividend restriction, which means that no profits can be transferred to the owners.

Candidate profile

We are looking for candidates who are interested in being a part of strategic business development for Interim kultur AB, and have sound experience in one or more of the following areas:

  • cultural field (performance, dance, visual, writer, music, theatre, etc.);
  • Workers rights/labour law/social law/social security;
  • Cultural policy making;
  • Union / employees’ organisation work;
  • Organisation development;
  • Communications/branding;
  • Equality and non-discrimination and working conditions;
  • Strategic development of administrative capacity;
  • Fundraising and diversification of funding sources in non-profit/cultural sector;
  • Finance, economy, accounting;
  • Social movements/developments in the era of precarious work;
  • Public relations and/or cultural lobbyism.

If you are interested yourself, or know a great candidate whom you would like to nominate, please let us know by sending an email with your/candidate’s name and short background to:
