Vacancies at The Prince's Foundation:
Director of International Programmes, Manager of Design and Network, Foundation Representative at Poundbury & Tutor
United Kingdom
The Prince’s Foundation for the Built Environment is an educational charity established by The Prince of Wales to improve the quality of people’s lives by teaching and practicing timeless and eco¬logical ways of planning, designing and building. Building on our achievements in the last 18 months we have refocused, consolidated and expanded our current activities resulting in the opportunity to appoint key individuals to four new roles in The Foundation. These roles are critical in enabling us to continue with our strategy for dynamic growth both in this country and abroad, continuing to enhance our reputation and widening our audience to share in The Foundation’s vision.
Director of International Programmes - Highly Competitive Salary
This new role reflects the evolution of the Foundation’s international strategy from a modest start in 2004 through to the current drive to effect change on an international scale. Co-Coordinating international activities and creating a network of international partners through Centres of Excellence, exemplar projects and in response to key issues, the Director of International Programmes will broker and often lead design workshops, charrettes and educational events in collaboration with other departments within The Foundation. Reporting to the Chief Executive and in many external situations representing The Foundation on his behalf, this is a key senior appointment. This post involves extensive international travel, and requires an individual with a high level of sensitivity to other cultures, a strong commitment to and expertise in traditional urbanism and sustainability, and experience working at senior levels with government and business leaders.
Manager of Design and Network Activities £35-£42K
The Design Theory and Networks Department is structured to collate and develop design theory from 10 senior fellows associated with the Foundation, to input design theory and suggest practitioners to contribute to projects and educational activities within the Foundation, to develop a broad base of network practitioners to carry out the Foundation’s mission and to drive the Foundation’s membership programme. This role will assist the Department Director in managing a wide ranging portfolio of network events and activities to support the strategic goals of The Foundation. Having a degree in the built environment, preferably architecture, urban design or landscape, the successful candidate will demonstrate excellent organizational skills and an ability to work with minimum supervision.
Foundation Representative at Poundbury £35-£42K
Poundbury, an urban extension to Dorchester which The Prince of Wales began building in 1993, is a living embodiment of the design principles of The Foundation and a vital learning laboratory. The Foundation’s Representative will help meet the growing demand to provide tours, lectures, ongoing case studies and research about this urban development, as well as assisting with the refinement of traditional architectural detailing on site. Assisting the Duchy of Cornwall with public consultation on the future phasing of Poundbury as well as other sites around Dorchester, this role will have a reciprocal benefit to the Duchy, sharing knowledge, experience and providing office space at Poundbury. Literate in classical archi¬tecture and having a sound understanding of the principles of traditional building, the successful candidate will have an educational background in architecture, landscape architecture or town planning.
Tutor, Education Programme £35-£45K
A key member of the Foundation’s professional staff, the Tutor will be the core link between our students and the practice based learning model adopted by The Foundation for the Education Programme. Reporting to the Director of Education, the Tutor will have lead responsibility for the development of the Education Programme’s core curriculum, ensuring that it is grounded in the timeless principles that guide the Foundation whilst linking instruction closely to practice through participation in Enquiry by Design and live projects. Deputising for the Director of Education, the Tutor will also have an active role in establishing our graduate Masters Programme in Urbanism. The successful candidate will have already demonstrated a professional commitment to advancing the principles of tradition urbanism, as well as a commitment to integrating practice-based learning on live projects with studio work and reading of theory. The role will require a dem¬onstrated academic or professional qualification in architecture or urban design, as well as experience in working with students to create individualised educational programmes.
