The successful candidate will:

Demonstrate strong technical theater knowledge, including lighting, sound, set construction, and backstage operations
Bring experience managing or supporting theatrical productions and technical crews
Exhibit a teaching-first mindset with patience, flexibility, and enthusiasm for working with students of varying experience levels
Model strong organizational, communication, and collaborative skills
Demonstrate a commitment to safety and best practices in technical theater environments
Collaborate enthusiastically with students and colleagues in a creative and fast-paced setting
Maintain composure, professionalism, and adaptability during live productions and technical rehearsals

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in a related field preferred
