New structure at the Arts Council of England

The Arts Council England national office now has two new departments. Arts Strategy provides national leadership in the arts, combining art form specialism with expertise in areas such as broadcasting, education, diversity and research. Arts Planning and Investment leads in terms of Arts Council’s relationship with central government as well as heading up their corporate planning and strategies for investment.

There have been a number of permanent appointments in these departments and where this is not the case an interim has been made. These are listed below.

Arts Council England national office also hopes to appoint Executive Directors – in Arts Strategy and Arts Planning and Investment – in early December 2006. Announcements will be made as new people are appointed over the next couple of months.
