## Description

North East Lincolnshire Council \(the Authority\) on behalf of Grimsby Creates, the Cultural Development Fund programme for Grimsby, wishes to commission a Festival Director to lead the development and delivery of the inaugural 'Grimsby Festival of the Sea 2021'\. A maximum budget of £10,000 excluding VAT, is being offered for the role of Festival Director, financed by the Cultural Development Fund \(CDF\)\. There are also funds available for the delivery of the inaugural Festival which will be a starting budget of approximately £40,000, but as we would like to ensure the sustainability of the Festival for future years, the securing of additional revenue income streams, or other funding, is a critical requirement of the Festival Director's role\.
