Gwangju Cultural Foundation seeks new leadership following vacancies

The Gwangju Cultural Foundation has announced an open recruitment process for new leadership following a period of instability. The foundation is seeking to fill 11 positions, including one CEO, nine non-executive directors, and one non-executive auditor.

The vacancy follows the resignation of the previous CEO and key department heads, a situation triggered by an intensive audit conducted by Gwangju City covering six years of operations. The recruitment process, which includes applications through August 22, aims to normalize the organization. Candidates for the CEO position must meet specific professional requirements, such as having served in cultural or arts organizations or holding high-level civil service positions. Final appointments are expected by November 18.
