CAREER STAGE
BEGINNER

CAREER STAGE
EARLY STAGE
You’ve been in some great group shows, maybe just finished a residency, had a few studio visits with curators and have a great artist network, who love your work. You’ve just secured some funding and you’re on the cusp of a great solo show. You’re figuring it out and you’re burning bright.
CAREER STAGE
MID CAREER
You’re a visible part of the galaxy now. You’ve made a lot of work. People have either seen it, read about it, or heard you or others talking about it. You’ve been commissioned, got some art world champions, had some press, sold some work, independently or with a gallery and maybe even won a prize. There’s more twinkling in the pipeline, and you’re on the cusp of something big.
CAREER STAGE
ESTABLISHED
You’ve had major solo shows in international locations. You have one mega gallery representing you and others acting as partner galleries. You get asked to contribute to group shows, Biennials, events and speak regularly. Your work appears at art fairs all over the world and you get massive budgets to produce large scale work for private and public collections and commissions. You’re on fire.

CAREER STAGE
BEGINNER
You’re thinking about re-training, studying or you’ve just graduated. You have an inkling that you’d like to try your hands at something in the arts but not sure if it’s right for you or if it’ll deliver on your creative ambitions. There’s a few options, so you want to get clear on your special sauce, to choose the right course, gig, or tribe and be your best self at the interview. You want to check in with somebody who’s been there for some pointers to save you time and energy and reassure you you’re on the right track.
CAREER STAGE
EARLY STAGE
You’ve supported some great creative people, with great ideas doing great things, although in hindsight you might do things differently. You’ve grafted, from basic admin to convincing people to donate stuff, to inventing new ways of doing things, because you can’t quite believe it’s not been thought of before. You’ve knocked things into shape, got stuff done, at lightning speed, with a spring in your step, despite the long days and chicken feed pay. You’ve experienced enough to know you have more ideas to bring to fruition, you’re ready to step it up and lean into leadership.
CAREER STAGE
MID CAREER
You’ve taken creative crumbs and transformed them into mind-boggling feasts for hungry audiences. You’re adept at shape-shifting, from stretching tiny budgets and teams to spearheading ambitious shows, companies, campaigns, productions and brands whilst keeping multiple stakeholders sweet. People feel your passion and know you’re the real deal. You’ve held the fort time and again and done the dirty work, because somebody has to. You hide your battle scars well.
CAREER STAGE
C-SUITE
You lead with vision, passion and the belief that together we can make magic happen. You’re the glue. Whether it’s leading a team, running an arts organisation, festival, programme or charity, you put incredible ideas, people and place above all else. You’ve raised a lot of money, attracted some incredible donors, sponsors and get asked to represent at industry events regularly. Your networks know you’re the boss. You can do pretty much anything you put your mind to.
