**Do you have practical experience working in the creative industry as a freelance artist? Are you interested in upskilling and personal development in sound and video disciplines? Can you rig and operate video and sound equipment for live performance?**
We have a specially funded Sound and Video Traineeship opportunity as part of the Theatre Artists Fund Pilot Programme. This position recognises the importance of the creative and technical theatre workforce, and the way organisations are forming their recovery, following the impact of the pandemic on UK theatres.
The traineeship will take place over two-years and has been designed to offer a unique development opportunity for a freelance artist (specialising in sound and/or video) looking to level up their career, or who is contemplating changing career, skill building or refocusing from general technical skills to sound/video in a fast-developing Audio Visual discipline.

- Participating in the provision of Sound and Video related technical support

- Participating in fault-finding, repair and maintenance of all equipment
- Recording and maintaining designated RSC productions and events for archive purposes
- Working in a cooperative and collaborative manner with all staff
- Being aware of current Health and Safety legislation and legal requirements
- Actively participating within the Theatre Artist Fund training programme
To be suitable for this role, you must have:
- Practical experience of working in the creative industry as a freelance artist
- An interest in upskilling, personal development and interdisciplinary working
- Knowledge and experience of rigging and operation of Video and Sound equipment for live performance
- The ability to fault-find and carry out first line maintenance on AV equipment
- Experience in the use of Sound, Lighting and Local Area Network-based control systems and show operation
Alongside practical on-the-job learning, the position will be underpinned by a tailored training pathway, including:
- Discipline specific training (provided through peer-to-peer learning)
- Visits to equipment suppliers for hands on training with equipment/devices
- All required health and safety training/qualifications, including: Working at Height, Mobile Elevating Work Platforms, Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment (if not already secured), and managing health and safety systems at the RSC (delivered by IOSH).
- A series of professional development workshops delivered by Theatre People through the Theatre Artist Fund Pilot Programme
The mentor will provide additional pastoral care and guidance, meeting with their mentee regularly to discuss their experiences throughout the placement and develop strategies for their longer-term development as a freelance artist.
This is a full time, 2 year fixed term contact, based in Stratford-upon-Avon with expected travel to London and tour locations.
Estimated hours are averaged at 48 per week, working up to 6 days out of 7, which included evening and weekends.
RSC Benefits:
- 30 days annual leave, rising to 34 after 3 years' service (pro-rata for duration of the contract. This is a buyout contract so no additional days are given for Bank Holidays
