We are looking for an experienced driver to drive the ArtCart with the technical ability to manage the digital equipment and material resources in the office. This role requires flexibility to ensure that our organisation is available to offer creative activities on board the ArtsCart in the communities across NI, while ensuring that all arts material/digital equipment resources for the work are properly managed and maintained.

WheelWorks is a leading regional youth arts charity, which, since 1995 has been working with young people aged 4-25 and their communities across Northern Ireland.

This is an amazing opportunity for a highly motivated self-starter and experienced driver to drive the ArtCart lorry and manage the digital equipment and arts resources in the office/on site. Drivers must hold a category C1/C licence.  This role requires flexibility, with weekday support and some evening and weekend support for activities and events that we offer onboard the ArtCart vehicle across NI.

As a driver, you will be supporting our outreach work in the community, at youth clubs, festivals, and community events across NI. As the arts technician, you will be responsible for managing different types of resources (e.g., iPads/gaming equipment, AV equipment, arts materials etc.), supporting staff and freelance artists with the resources needed to deliver the creative activities.

The ArtCart vehicle is the only service of its kind in Northern Ireland; it is a custom-designed lorry when stationed that opens out into an outdoor event space. Onboard, we offer fun, creative experiences using a fusion of digital and traditional arts. The aim is to ignite creativity in young people and their communities.
