CRIPtic Arts Request (Portfolio)

Organisation Description

CRIPtic Arts is a disabled-led CIC employing six people and creating an artistic landscape where disabled people flourish, through connecting people in the arts for wellbeing, developing creative career and training opportunities, spotlighting, staging and exhibiting their work, and using research and campaigns to change the industry. We were founded in 2021.

What are they looking for?

We are looking for a mentor who can work with us on HR specifically. We are hoping to review the policies we have, identify the policies we need, and develop them in coherence with an ethos of supporting disabled people to succeed. However, alongside that, we also want to boost our own skills in managing performance challenges, especially where disabled staff are underperforming and there is an interconnection between our mission of creating spaces for them, and our obligations to funders and the people we’re supporting to deliver programmes.

We would very much appreciate support from someone who can help us identify and develop the correct policies to prioritise in keeping with our organisational ethos, and perhaps also support us in exploring how to have processes and conversations at times where things aren’t working the way we hope.
