Freelance Duty Manager & Theatre Technician

Collective Acting Studio is an actor-training company in Finsbury Park, London, working to open up the performing arts to people who have traditionally been underrepresented in the industry. We’re looking for a Freelance Duty Manager & Theatre Technician to run our building on evenings and weekends and to tech our shows.

On a duty manager shift, you’ll open and close the building, look after students, tutors and visitors, and make sure classes and rehearsals for our Part-Time School, Short Courses for Professional Actors and Youth Academy run safely and smoothly.

Quieter parts of a shift are used for answering course enquiries and light admin.

You’ll also have the opportunity to operate lighting and sound for performances and events in our theatre and studio spaces.

3-5 shifts a month, typically Tuesday or Wednesday evenings (4-10pm) and/or Saturdays (10am-6pm).

Show work every few weeks, which needs some extra availability around performances, agreed in advance.

£18 per hour for duty shifts, £21 per hour when teching a show.

Freelance, in person, starting as soon as possible.

Additional opportunities to develop social media, website building and video editing skills.
