There is a 3-stage competency progression within Grade 5 and all starters join at Stage 1.

It is expected that by contract end, you will have received the appropriate training and have the experience to apply for a skilled, professional Theatre Technician job (Grade 4 by NT standards).
The successful candidate will have the following:
– Previous experience or training in a similar role, preferably within a similar-sized venue or production company,
– Basic working knowledge of theatre sound and/or video for production and an understanding of their operation and control systems
