Lead Lighting Techician (Touring)

We’re looking for an experienced Lead Lighting Technician to take charge of all lighting elements for Eireann, the newest touring production from A Taste of Ireland. This role is ideal for a confident, hands-on lighting operator who thrives in fast-paced touring environments and can deliver a consistent, high-quality show across varied venues.

You’ll be responsible for setting up the lighting rig, programming cues, operating the show, and managing the lighting pack during transport and load-ins. Working closely with the Stage Manager and local crews, you’ll adapt quickly to different spaces and ensure the lighting design is executed cleanly and on time.

The show features a detailed cue structure and a consistent lighting design, which may require moderate to significant adjustments depending on each venue’s setup. You’ll also assist with general pack-in/pack-out duties and help troubleshoot related technical issues on the road.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead all lighting setup, programming, and operation on tour

• Execute lighting cues during performances with precision

• Maintain lighting rig and troubleshoot any issues

• Liaise with venue tech teams to adapt and patch into house systems

• Ensure lighting design integrity across all venues

• Support pack-in, pack-out, and broader tech duties as needed
