@amymackley
Motivated arts professional blending choreography, leadership, and administrative expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated and enthusiastic arts professional with experience across choreography, performance, arts administration, and customer-facing roles. I hold an MA in Choreography (in progress) and a BA (Hons) in Philosophy, and I combine creative practice with strong organisational and communication skills.
I have led and coordinated performance teams, choreographed shows, and performed in major productions including a 5-star run at the 2024 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, while also managing front-of-house, social media content, and office administration roles. I bring proven experience supervising groups, managing events, and liaising with stakeholders.
I am passionate about contributing my creative leadership, empathy from peer-support volunteering, and practical administrative strengths to dynamic performing-arts or cultural organisations seeking a reliable, collaborative professional.
