Forward:

Head of Digital Programmes, Tate

Following the launch in 2000 of Tate Modern and the re- launch of 
tate.org.uk – which now receives an avarage of 800,000 hits a day – we have 
established this new post to lead Tates’s ambition in the field of new 
digital media. Through the organisation of Tate’s digital assets and the 
creation of digital content, the aim is to increase public enjoyment of 
British modern and contemporary art.
Reporting to the Director of National and International Programmes, the new 
Head will lead a small team to research, test and implement new content 
options and business driven opportunities. The team is involved in 
specialist work including web editorial, web-casting, copyright and content 
management. The team’s work is enabled through close co-operation with 
Tate’s information systems Department, and by linking to Tate curators and 
education staff, and to all divisions and departments across the Tate 
organisation. The head will represent Tate within the wider digital world, 
nationally an internationally and will look to create further strategic 
links and partnerships.

The post requires an understanding of current developments in the 
management and distribution of digital content, up-to-date knowledge of all 
relevant software systems, budget management skills, together with a least 
five years experience in a management position. A keen interest in art and 
the particular ways in which museums and artist are using digital media 
will be a distinct advantage. More than anything the new Head must have a 
clear perspective on the likely opportunities for digital content and 
digital learning over the next five years.

The position is being advertised in The Guardian on 21st May 2001.
Closing date: Tuesday 15th June 2001
