The NBOC has grown from strength to strength during its 70+ years, thrilling audiences with some of the finest productions on the planet.

By every measure – artistic, financial, and reputational – The National Ballet of Canada is in a strong position, made possible by bold and judicious artistic, administrative, and governance leadership. This is an oppor­tunity to partner with Artistic Director Hope Muir to advance and realize the NBOC’s vision and future plans as its next Executive Director.

Through your professional career or as an experienced volunteer board member, you have come to appreciate the nature of leadership in a complex, high-profile performing arts organization. As a trusted partner to the Artistic Director, you will embrace the dynamics of co-leadership – working together collaboratively for a single purpose and knowing when to move forward and when to pause. You will support the development of new repertoire and the Company’s drive for excellence while embedding the principles of diversity and inclusion in its work at home and on tour. Central to this will be the application of your proven experience in ensuring and strengthening the Company’s sound financial position and the executive leadership of marketing, audience engagement, new audience development, donor stewardship and diversification, EDI initiatives, education and community outreach programs, fiscal management, production, contract/union negotiations, human resource management, organizational culture and employee engagement, and information technology services.

You work effectively with a Board, and build trusted relationships with key supporters – audiences, governments, sponsors, donors, granting councils, foundations, and partners and peers in the arts community. Strategic, diplomatic, disciplined, financially astute, innovative, and a talented public speaker and negotiator, you also are a trusted coach, mentor, and inspiring team leader. This is an opportunity to engage your general management skills, your knowledge of today’s performing arts market – its challenges and its untapped potential – and realize a strategic plan that will bring to the world the incomparable delight, passion, and illumination that dance at its best can provide.

Organization
Edmonton Arts Council ( ‘EAC’) recognizes our relationship with the Indigenous people of Treaty 6 territories. In doing so, we renew our commitment to continuing our collective journey toward the ideals of peace, friendship, and understanding at the core of that agreement.

The EAC is a non-profit society and charitable organization established in 1995 that supports and promotes the arts in Edmonton. EAC works to; Build partnerships and initiate projects that strengthen the community; Invests in Edmonton festivals, arts organizations, and individual artists through municipal, corporate, and private funding; Provides expert advice to government and other agencies on issues that affect the arts; Creates awareness of the quality, variety and value of artistic work produced in Edmonton.

The vision of the EAC is to cultivate a rich, diverse, and inclusive cultural environment that reflects the city's unique identity. The mission of the EAC is to connect, advocate, and invest in the arts community to ensure that the arts are integral to the lives of Edmontonians. This involves promoting the value of the arts, securing resources, and facilitating opportunities for artists and arts organizations. Connections & Exchanges is the award-winning current cultural plan that outlines a strategic framework for the growth and transformation of arts and heritage in Edmonton over a decade to 2029. The plan focuses on three main goals: to infuse culture, arts, and heritage into every aspect of civic fabric; support cultural makers and interpreters; and to grow arts and heritage audiences. It emphasizes collaboration, inclusivity, and innovation, aiming to create a thriving cultural ecosystem that benefits all Edmontonians. This further upholds the significance of the EAC’s work with equity-seeking communities emphasizing the significance of the Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access (IDEA) framework. In alignment with the Indigenous Principle as reflected within Connections & Exchanges that Indigenous people have agency in their journeys of revitalizing and participating in traditional, contemporary, and future manifestations of their culture.
The EAC works with the city, its agencies, and the arts community in Edmonton for the benefit of all citizens to realize our vision of a city where arts and culture are integrated in all aspects of our community life and where both individual artists and arts organizations are valued and supported in their endeavors to create, communicate, and contribute. Core programs and services for Edmontonians include managing a suite of investment programs for individual artists and arts and festival organizations, managing the City of Edmonton’s Public Art Policy and Public Art Collection, EAC Shop and Services, Community Animation in Edmonton neighbourhoods, and other special projects.
The impact of the EAC on the community is profound. By supporting local artists and arts organizations, the EAC helps to ensure a thriving cultural scene that enriches the lives of residents and visitors alike. As a glimpse of some of the impact these programs and services have had in 2023 the EAC:

  • invested over $14 million in 305 artists and collectives, and 194 arts and festival organizations, through grant funding.
  • brought 127 artists to 140 Edmonton neighborhoods through 146 events with the Community Animation programming. 
  • showcased 238 artists in Shop & Services with 8837 tickets sold.
  • managed 292 artworks in the Public Art collection with 27 artworks planned or in progress.

The EAC maintains a strong relationship with the City of Edmonton, working collaboratively to integrate arts and culture into the broader municipal framework. This partnership ensures that the arts are considered in city planning and development processes, reinforcing Edmonton’s reputation as a culturally vibrant city. The city's commitment to the arts is reflected in its funding and policy support for the EAC, which in turn drives the council's ability to support the arts community effectively.
The EAC is governed by a 13-member volunteer Board of Directors where Tyler Sherard serves as Chair. Representation on the Board includes artists, arts administrators, and community members with specific skills and knowledge in Board Governance. Representatives from the City of Edmonton and Explore Edmonton serve as advisors.  The Executive Director leads an executive leadership team comprised of two Associate Executive Directors (Finance, Organizational Effectiveness and Engagement; and Programs, Services and Access) who collectively lead the work of external programs and services including Investments, Services and Partnerships, Public Art, and Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Access along with internal operational support services including Finance and Risk, Communications and Engagement, Research and Measurement, Policy, Planning and Performance, and People and Culture.

Community
Located in the heart of Treaty No. 6 Territory, Edmonton/amiskwaciywâskahikan is one of Canada’s youngest and fastest growing cities. The traditional meeting ground for many Indigenous communities, including the Nehiyawak/Cree, Dene Suliné, Nakota Sioux, Saulteaux, Niitsitapi/Blackfoot, Métis, and the Inuk/Inuit peoples, Edmonton is home to Canada’s second-largest urban Indigenous community. The city’s continual development as a thriving urban centre encourages the ongoing migration of people from across Canada and around the world. The city's visible minority population sits at 42.8 percent, with South Asian, Chinese, Black, and Filipino people making up the largest visible minority communities within Edmonton. Our diverse arts ecology in Edmonton reflects the population, with festivals, organizations, and major events such as the Indian Film Festival of Alberta, 5 Artists 1 Love, Cariwest, Edmonton Filipino Fiesta, and the Ociciwan Contemporary Art Collective.
As Alberta’s capital city with a population of over 1.2 million, Edmonton boasts a variety of major amenities that enhance the quality of life for its residents, including world-class educational institutions, several leading hospitals and specialized medical centers, and an extensive network of parks and recreational facilities.

Nicknamed “Canada’s Festival City” Edmonton is home to a vibrant arts community. Offerings range from theatre and music venues to galleries and studios, brought to life by large institutions, community arts programs, collectives, and individual artists. The Edmonton Arts Council serves the entire community to bring art to a public that agrees (87%) that arts and culture make communities better places to live. A further 85% of surveyed Edmontonians agree that participating in arts and cultural activities builds a shared sense of community identity.
