The Performing Arts Technician, working closely with the Head of Music and Creative Technology and the Deputy Head Co-Curricular and Operations, assists with the planning and delivery of the technical aspects of productions and concerts, examined performances, and one-off events. As well as maintaining facilities and equipment in the Performing Arts Centre (PAC), Music Department and Dance Studio, some work will also be dedicated to preparing rooms and outdoor spaces for rehearsals, gigs, festivals and recording sessions.

The PAC is appointed with a FLX lighting Desk, Yamaha TF5 mixing desk and an iMac running Logic Pro X. It has a good size lighting rig, newly installed projector, audio capability, hearing loop and has tiered seating for up to 200 people. The Music Department and Dance Studio have a wide selection of pro AV equipment and an iMac suite.
