Lead the strategic direction of all aspects of engineering services, creating a culture of exceptional service delivery focused on enhancing the visitor experience.
The estate of the Royal Ballet & Opera comprises three sites: the main site in Covent Garden, including a 2,000+ seated theatre dating from 1858, redeveloped stage, and newly developed rehearsal rooms, dressing rooms, workshops, offices, and ancillary spaces, completed in 1999; a second theatre and refreshed front of house spaces delivered via the Open Project in 2018; the Production Workshop and Costume Centre in Thurrock, Essex; and a 14,000m2 store in Aberdare, Wales.
These facilities support a complex production schedule and enable the organization to support thousands of staff, artists, and creative personnel in staging opera and ballet to high standards.
The Head of Estates Engineering Services will oversee strategic planning and delivery of engineering services across all sites, providing guidance on building and fabric maintenance, utilities, installation, capital works, energy-saving, and carbon reduction projects.
