The opportunity

Are you a rare multi-skilled unicorn who is working across several different skills, like metalwork, digital fabrication, and woodwork?  We have students who want to build puppets, props, costumes, sets and more, and they need your help! Not only will you need to be a brilliant maker, but also an excellent teacher who can adapt on the spot to a specific student need or design brief. You get a great deal of satisfaction helping really eager novices gain skills that help them build their own creative professional practice. This satisfaction is what motivates you to have patience and gain a meaningful sense of pride in your work. Our workshops are equipped to make almost anything, and we're always adapting to make room for new techniques.  You'll be joining a fantastic and well-established team, who all have a broad range of knowledge and their own specialisms.  What's your range of skills look like ?

Our recruitment process involves: Application, Shortlisting, Interview and Assessment, Offer, Onboarding.

We understand the benefits of using AI in work. But, if you are thinking of using it to submit an application, we ask you to think about what value it adds.
