Ulster Orchestra £17,343.22 (based on 26 hpw) Closing date 30 November 2025
We are currently recruiting for a part-time Stage Coordinator, to join our busy operations team.
Stage management is a crucial function within the orchestra, to ensure rehearsals and concerts are effectively and efficiently set up and run smoothly.
As Stage Coordinator, you will assist the Stage Supervisor on all aspects of planning and setting up the stage for the orchestra which includes assisting with the transportation and safe storage of instruments and equipment, technical liaison with venues and technical suppliers, and ensuring that high standards of Health and Safety are always adhered to.
If you have strong organisational and communication skills with a flexible approach to work, this is a great opportunity for someone to embark on a career with a world-class orchestra, and to develop and progress their skills within a supportive, highly professional environment. Previous experience in a similar role, while desirable, is not required as on-the-job training will be provided.
In addition to training, we offer a competitive salary and benefits such as pension membership, a health cash plan, and generous annual leave provision.
