Madison, Wisconsin

Temporary

Closing at: Aug 27 2026 - 11:00pm CDT

Job Category:

University Staff

Employment Type:

Temporary (Fixed Term)

Job Profile:

Stagehand TE

Job Summary:

PBS Wisconsin, a service of Wisconsin Public Media, is hiring a Scenic Production Assistant to build the studio sets and props seen in its television productions. This is a carpentry-focused, hands-on role: most of the work involves framing, cutting, assembling, and finishing scenic elements in the shop, then installing and striking them in the studio or on location for special events.

Beyond the build itself, this position collaborates with the lead scenic designer to plan, design, and furnish productions. Keeps tools, equipment, and storage areas clean, organized, and accurately inventoried, using the existing inventory database.

Responsibilities

Assist in building, installing, and taking down scenic sets and props for studio and remote productions and events.
Keep the scene shop and storage areas clean, organized, and free of clutter
Maintain accurate inventories and records of scenic equipment and properties
Other scenic and production-related responsibilities as assigned.

This position reports to the lead scenic designer.

We're especially looking for someone with hands-on carpentry experience — comfortable running shop tools, reading plans, and building scenic or theatrical elements from the ground up. Being able to create construction drawings for designs is a plus but not required

This position is classified under UW–Madison's Stagehand TE standard job title (Job Code TE012, Temporary Employee category), with the working title of Scenic Production Assistant.

This is a part-time (50%), non-exempt, hourly appointment with a one year term

The successful candidate can anticipate working an average of 20 hours per week, with some weeks being more and some less depending on production schedules and deadlines.

This position works on-site at PBS Wisconsin's studios at Vilas Communication Hall on the UW–Madison campus. Given the hands-on nature of building, installing, and maintaining scenic elements, this position is not eligible for a flexible work agreement.

Hours are generally scheduled Monday–Friday during standard business hours; evening and weekend work will be required as needed to support scenic event installs, strikes, and live productions.

This position occasionally requires travel to off-site locations.

Driver Authorization

It is expected that employees will make individual arrangements for transportation adequate to meet position responsibilities and essential job functions. Information about UW-Madison Driver Authorization can be found at businessservices.wisc.edu

Key Job Responsibilities:

Department:

Wisconsin Public Media/PBS WI

Compensation:

We anticipate paying $20-22 per hour, with actual pay dependent on qualifications and experience.

Required Qualifications:

Hands on carpentry experience
Ability to read plans
Ability to build scenic or theatrical elements

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience creating construction drawings for designs

Education:

H.S. Diploma Preferred Minimum

How to Apply:

Resume (required) - Detail your educational and professional background

Cover Letter (optional) - Refer to your related work experience
