The successful candidate will have:
• Excellent leadership and interpersonal skills, including verbal and written communication skills.

• Superior understanding of arts organizations or complex businesses that operate with multiple

• Extensive grant-writing and financial management experience.
• Successful experience in sponsorship development and fundraising.
• Demonstrated ability to plan and manage complex projects.
• High levels of comfort with current technologies.
• Post-secondary education in business, music or the arts, or a demonstrated background of
continuous independent learning in related areas.
• Experience within the Canadian music industry, with ample networking connections already
established.
• A proven track record of working successfully with a Board of Directors is required.
• Leadership experience in a music industry association would be a definite asset.
SaskMusic has offices in both Regina and Saskatoon, with the head office located in Regina.
International travel may be required, so a valid Canadian passport and the ability to comply with
