Director of Communications and Marketing

DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING

Context

Established in Montreal in 1960, the National Theatre School of Canada (NTS) is the leading professional training institution for theatre artists in Canada.  We are a co-lingual place of learning, offering programs of the highest quality in English and French to actors, directors, designers, production specialists, and playwrights.

NTS is a centre of excellence in the field of theatre training. We have developed our hard-earned reputation by promoting pedagogical practices that embrace tradition while also championing invention, that place equal value on both performance and creation, and that are constantly questioned and adjusted. Our ambition is to remain a leading centre of learning and experimentation that will help prepare young artists to redefine the role of theatre in the 21st century. With a foundation of rigorous training and a meaningful connection to the long tradition of theatre in Canada, our graduates are equipped to become leaders in the field and to contribute to the renewal of theatre in Canada.

We are determined to always look to the horizon, to understand the context and challenges our students will face as they begin their professional lives. To that end, we are constantly seeking new partnerships, innovations and outreach opportunities to increase our influence and contribute substantially to the advancement of the theatre arts and culture. In particular, we celebrate our unique position as a co-lingual school in Canada and recognise our civic footprint in Montreal as one of our greatest tools for building engagement. We take great pride in our numerous public performances by both our English and French sections at the renowned Monument-National, which we own and which operates as a professional venue when not in use by students. Our numerous outreach programs are expanding, led by flagship initiatives such as TEC (Theatre Engaging Communities), Horizon Diversité and our participation in Les Journées de la culture.

Administratively, we are striving to have our work reflect the creativity, ambition and energy of our learning practices.  Our departmental work should serve as a model of innovation and efficiency that our students can learn from, and that the industry seeks to emulate. In particular, our work in communications should similarly contribute to the health of the cultural milieu across the country.

In November 2013, the National Theatre School of Canada officially launched its strategic plan Horizon 2020 – The Future Intersects with the Present. This plan serves as a blueprint for all of our activities, in particular how we communicate with the world, and offers us a bold set of guiding principles to take us into the next era of our development.

General Responsibilities

The Director of Communications and Marketing is responsible for overseeing the creation and implementation of the policies, strategies, projects, partnerships, and initiatives related to communications, marketing, outreach and the general positioning of the NTS within local, national and international communities.

The Communications and Marketing team is made up of three full-time professionals (including the Director) and is supported by numerous external collaborators, notably in graphic arts, translation and revision. The annual budget for Communications and Marketing, excluding salaries and benefits, is approximately $250,000.

Directeur/trice des communications et du marketing

 

Contexte

Fondée à Montréal en 1960, l’École nationale de théâtre du Canada (ÉNT) est la plus importante institution d’enseignement professionnel pour les artistes de théâtre au pays. Colingue, elle offre des programmes de formation de haut niveau, en français et en anglais, aux acteurs, metteurs en scène, scénographes, spécialistes de la production et auteurs dramatiques en devenir.

Sa réputation d’excellence, qui n’est plus à faire, émane d’une pédagogie à la fois soucieuse de tradition et amoureuse d’invention, et qui accorde une importance égale au répertoire et à la création. L’apprentissage, à l’ÉNT, est constamment réévalué, et il s’adapte aux mouvances de la pratique : nous voulons que l’École demeure un lieu d’expérimentation de premier plan, apte à préparer les jeunes artistes qui la fréquentent à redéfinir le rôle du théâtre au 21e siècle. Forts d’un parcours de formation rigoureux et d’une conscience nette de la longue tradition dans laquelle ils s’inscrivent, nos diplômés sont outillés pour devenir des chefs de file dans leur discipline et pour contribuer au renouveau du théâtre au Canada.

Nous veillons à ne jamais perdre de vue l’horizon culturel afin d’en comprendre le contexte, et de cerner les défis auxquels nos étudiants devront faire face au seuil de leur vie professionnelle. C’est dans ce but que nous cherchons sans arrêt de nouveaux partenariats, des possibilités d’innovation et de dépassement propres à stimuler, à influencer, à accroître de façon significative notre apport à l’avancement du théâtre, des arts et de la culture. Nous revendiquons avec fierté, notamment, notre position unique d’école canadienne colingue, et nous considérons notre empreinte civique à Montréal comme l’un de nos meilleurs atouts dans la mise sur pied d’un engagement citoyen. Nous sommes fiers des nombreux spectacles de finissants offerts par les sections française et anglaise au renommé Monument-National, un théâtre qui nous appartient, et qui sert également aux compagnies professionnelles lorsqu’il n’est pas utilisé par l’École. Nos nombreux programmes hors-formation prennent de l’expansion, propulsés par des initiatives phares comme le TEC (Théâtre et engagement communautaire), Horizon Diversité et notre participation aux Journées de la Culture.

Sur le plan administratif, nous nous efforçons de refléter la créativité, l'ambition et l’énergie de nos méthodes d’apprentissage. Notre travail doit servir de modèle d’inventivité et d’efficacité pour que nos étudiants y apprennent, et pour que l’industrie s’en inspire. De la même façon, le secteur des communications devrait contribuer à la santé du milieu culturel à travers le pays.

En novembre 2013, l’École nationale de théâtre du Canada lançait officiellement son plan stratégique HORIZON 2020 - L’avenir se conjugue au présent.

Guidé par le plan stratégique, le directeur ou la directrice a pour tâche de redéfinir le service des communications et du marketing pour qu’il reflète et même stimule la créativité et la vitalité des activités au sein de l’École.
