Subtopia is looking for an experienced producer who wants to be part of Subtopia's dynamic team. As an operational producer in Subtopia's circus department, you will have a varied job that includes leading and executing our annual circus festival, coordinating guest performances, and making Swedish and international circus artists feel at home during their residencies.

About Subtopia

Subtopia is a 15,000 sqm production site for culture, experiences, and meetings located in Alby, Botkyrka. Here you will find artists, film producers, circus companies, set designers, non-profit organizations, social entrepreneurs, and other creative businesses. Subtopia is part of the municipal company Upplev Botkyrka AB and acts as the executor of Botkyrka Municipality's investment in culture and creative industries.

Subtopia's goal is to enable cultural and community-building cultural production at all levels, both non-profit and commercial, and to work together with local actors to create a better society. Subtopia offers facilities for both permanent tenants and commercial short-term rentals and residency activities.

The Hangar is one of the most flexible multi-venues in the Stockholm area, rented out for events, production rehearsals, film, and TV recordings. The venue is also used to present Swedish and international guest circus performances.

About the Position

We offer a creative and varied workplace where you will work diversely within Subtopia's focus area of circus. You will work closely with Subtopia's artistic program manager for the circus department, who is also the festival manager. Together, you will work strategically and concretely to create opportunities for circus artists to create, produce, and reach audiences - through residencies, skills development, relationship-building activities, and festivals. The circus department usually collaborates closely with many actors of various kinds, from local to international, from the independent field to institutions and public administration.

We are part of several local, national, and international networks and think tanks, which means that representation and international travel are part of the job. This includes some project coordination.

As a producer at Subtopia, you will work independently with coordination and execution.

You will be responsible for hosting the artistic residencies that run throughout the year. You will be responsible for production planning and operational execution of our annual circus festival. Together with the program manager, you will work closely on overarching issues and processes: budget, financing, program coordination, dialogue with external partners, follow-ups, and reporting.

All projects include appointing, leading, and supporting teams in all parts of the production and creating a positive and effective work environment. Ensuring that technical and logistical aspects are in place before and during execution. Ensuring that projects stay within budget and that resources are used efficiently.

The position also involves close collaboration with other departments within Subtopia, such as marketing, events, technology, and property.

You will have good opportunities for further education and development within your position, and we place great importance on everyone's well-being and participation in the development of the place. Established processes and routines are in place that we hope you will help further develop. The position includes working towards Subtopia's overall goals and missions, which means that some tasks outside the scope of the position may occur as needed.

Examples of Tasks:

Appoint, lead, and motivate assigned teams

Hosting for artists in connection with guest performances, festivals, and residencies

Planning and budgeting

Logistics and flow issues

Operational on-site during project execution

Management of booking systems, contracts, and invoices

Contact with suppliers, catering, technology, etc.

You are both friendly and clear in your collaboration and leadership. You have the ability to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere while being able to set boundaries when needed and handle challenging situations professionally.
