Claire Drakeley - Project Management

I enjoy being involved in a project or programme of work from the beginning, contributing to it's development and working with stakeholders to devise a creative project plan. For me, the value of a project is in understanding it's relevance and place within the strategic context and seeing genuine impact on people, art communities and partnerships.

From the initial ideas, I work with the project team to plan and implement the delivery of the project including co-ordination of logistics & resources, managing the budget, recruiting and contracting partners, suppliers & practitioners, managing communications across the team and meeting health & safety requirements.

I offer support and administration for co-ordinating projects with local partners such as schools, community groups, local councils, funders and strategic agencies. Alongside this, with the team, I develop and deliver marketing plans including print, website and PR, in line with the project objectives.
