Technical Director at Cast
Cast is Doncaster’s only professional theatre, launched in 2013 as the anchor of the town’s Cultural and Civic Quarter. In a short time, we have significantly contributed to the cultural life of Doncaster, presenting staged works, delivering participation and outreach activities for people of all ages and experience, supporting the development of artists, offering outdoor performance and community-based projects. We are part of Doncaster Culture & Leisure Trust. Cast is regularly funded by Arts Council England.
The Technical Director is a key leadership role and member of the Senior Management Team at Cast, responsible for the effective delivery of a busy programme of performance and events. The role is strategic and will lead on planning and resource management, ensuring that we are equipped to meet the technical needs of a diverse visiting programme, our produced work, as well as our creative learning projects and our artist development work.
The Technical Director manages the Technical department and sets a positive, collaborative working culture across in-house and freelance teams, identifying and developing talent, and assessing staff training needs. The Technical Director is also responsible for ensuring all of Cast's performance and event spaces are appropriately equipped and maintained to realise the highest possible standards of delivery.
As a senior leader, the role will work closely with the Director, Deputy Director and senior management colleagues to set strategic direction ensuring that our planning and programme scheduling are deliverable, efficient and value led.
