Occasionally, as needed, the King’s Hall Winter Garden may also require support.

St George’s Concert Hall is a 1374-seat / 1572-standing venue, renowned for its excellent acoustics, hosting orchestral seasons, rock concerts, children’s shows, and comedy seasons. The Studio Theatre is a versatile space for small-scale theatre productions, rehearsals, exhibitions, and meetings.
For the Casual Technician position, candidates must have 12-24 months of experience with electrical equipment, including programming ETC ION desks, focusing, fault finding, and backstage work in large theatre and concert hall environments. For the Casual Dresser role, knowledge and experience working in a theatre's backstage or technical areas are preferred. However, candidates with the right attitude, aptitude, and willingness to learn will also be considered.
Candidates must be prepared to work long and often unsociable hours, including evenings, weekends, and bank holidays. All duties should be performed with reasonable adjustments where appropriate, in accordance with the provisions of the Equality Act 2010.
