Assistant Director

Assistant Director (Part-Time, Paid)

The Wirth Center for the Performing Arts is hiring.

Not for a typical office job—but for someone who wants to help build something meaningful and grow into leadership.

We are a 45-year-old nonprofit music and dance school in St. Cloud, currently expanding into a new Community Arts Center downtown St. Cloud. We need someone who can step in, take ownership, and help us grow.

What You’ll Do

This role touches everything:

• Run social media and help tell our story
• Communicate with students and families
• Help organize operations and systems
• Support donor outreach and fundraising
• Assist with bookkeeping and admin
• Help move us from spreadsheets into better systems

Some days you’ll feel like an office manager.
Some days like a marketer.
Some days like an executive assistant.

That’s the job.

Who This Is For

This is a strong fit if you:

• Want to build something, not just maintain it
• Care about arts, education, and community impact
• Are organized, proactive, and comfortable figuring things out
• Have strength in at least one area (marketing, admin, finance, etc.)
• Want a role that could grow into Executive Director over time

What We Offer

• $27,500/year (part-time salaried, ~20 hrs/week)
• Flexible, mostly remote work
• Real responsibility and ownership
• Direct mentorship and visibility into nonprofit leadership
• A path to grow into a senior leadership role

What We Don’t Offer (Yet)

• Benefits
• A fully staffed, structured environment

We are building that—and you would help us get there.

• A short note about why this role interests you
• Your resume
• Which of the following areas are you strongest in: marketing, operations, admin, finance, or development? Give a brief example.
