Gaada is seeking an experienced Print Workshop Manager to lead the day-to-day operation and development of our artist-led print workshop at the Toogs Artist Workshop in Shetland.

The post-holder will join a functioning workshop with established systems for maintenance, booking, public workshops and open-access sessions. They will manage and develop this existing provision, ensuring the workshop remains safe, organised, welcoming, accessible and financially sustainable.

Key responsibilities include:

Coordinating the daily operation, maintenance and use of the workshop
Maintaining equipment, materials, stock and appropriate health and safety procedures
Delivering and developing public workshops, inductions and open-access sessions
Supporting members, visiting artists and workshop users to work safely and independently
Improving access to the workshop and responding to different support needs
Developing opportunities to increase earned income through workshops, open access and related activity
Contributing to the interim development of workshop facilities, equipment and working processes
Providing practical input to Gaada's directors as they plan the longer-term capital redevelopment of the facilities
Monitoring participation, workshop use and income, and contributing to evaluation and reporting

The role requires strong practical knowledge of screenprinting, letterpress and Risograph printing. Experience of relief printing and laser engraving is also desirable. Etching will be supported separately and is not a core responsibility of this post.

We are looking for a confident and collaborative printmaker who enjoys supporting others, can balance technical and organisational responsibilities, and wants to help an established community workshop develop its reach, accessibility and income.
