We are seeking inspiring and forward-thinking Contemporary Dance Specialists to join our Artistic Team, to help us prepare young dancers for today’s diverse and evolving industry.
We are looking for a dynamic practitioner who brings passion, creativity and rigour to the studio- someone who can challenge, support and elevate young artists as they grow in technical ability, physical intelligence, creative confidence and professional readiness.

As a key member of our Contemporary Faculty, you will deliver high-quality training across a range of contemporary techniques including Release, Limón, Cunningham, contact work and improvisation – alongside experience or openness to drawing from commercial or culturally diverse styles.
You will nurture dancers through a comprehensive curriculum that prioritises:
- technical excellence
- physical conditioning and dance science-informed practice
- creative problem-solving and choreographic development
- ensemble collaboration and performance artistry
You will also play an active role in student support, choreography, rehearsals, performance preparation and pastoral care, helping students develop resilience, confidence and a strong sense of artistic identity.

- Skilled in floorwork, contact work, improvisation and dynamic movement vocabulary

- Engaged with current industry practices and committed to lifelong learning
- Collaborative, organised and energetic, with excellent communication skills.
A recognised teaching qualification is desirable but not essential for the right candidate.
