We are OnFife and as Fife’s largest cultural organisation we specialise in making jaws drop, hearts warm, eyes light up and imaginations run wild. We work with a huge range of partners, artists and creatives and our spaces are some of Fife’s favourite places. An ambitious leadership-oriented charity, we’re built on strong values, and those values make us who we are – Fearless, Inviting, Fair and Exciting.

We’re a real Living Wage employer, and we offer a local government pension scheme, generous holiday allowance and flexible working opportunities. If you need to travel for work, we can provide pool cars if you’re near head office or pay travel expenses, so you are not out of pocket! Along with this, you can also access discounted gym/swim memberships and other employee benefits.

The Role
We have an exciting opportunity to join our Technicians’ team working at Lochgelly Centre in Fife. You’ll be involved in all aspects of technical work, including lighting, sound, production, stage management and audio-visual delivery for events and conferences. You’ll also work alongside the teams responsible for equipment maintenance and ensuring health and safety standards within the venues.

You can view the full job spec on our current vacancies page on our website.

About You
Our theatre technicians work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment, often under tight deadlines and with multiple shows / events running at the same time. As such you’ll be comfortable working under pressure and to agreed deadlines.

Whilst you may have a specialised field experience (i.e. sound or lighting), you will ideally have general experience in all other technical elements as the role will require you to cover all areas within the theatre at times. IT skills and good working knowledge and experience of specialist equipment (sound, lighting, AV systems) is required.

A high degree of flexibility is required as hours will always include evening and weekend work and you may be asked to provide cover at different theatres on occasion. The role can also be physically demanding so a strong level of fitness is required for this job.
