Summary

We are looking for experienced Operator Technicians to join our Production team at Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival — home to world-class performances and the UK’s biggest curated arts festival.

You will need to be a dependable and supportive team member who brings experience and expertise at an operator level from similar venues and events elsewhere. You will bring a keen, willing-to-learn and willing to lead attitude, able to both respond constructively to feedback but assist in leading general technicians to work together safely. You will also need to be able to communicate calmly and respectfully with management, artists, visiting production staff and conference organisers, remain flexible as priorities change, and help the team meet deadlines in a busy environment.

If selected for interview, you will be invited to take part in a 1.5 hour workshop which will be an informal session that combines practical tasks, knowledge checks and a short informal interview.

Brighton Dome & Festival values diversity promotes equality and challenges discrimination. We encourage and welcome applications from all backgrounds and all parts of the community, particularly ethnically diverse people who are currently under-represented. All applications are judged on merit.

Essential requirements

As a casual member of the Production department, you will provide practical, hands-on technical support across the Brighton Dome venues and Brighton Festival.
