£27,916 - £28,888 per annum (pending pay award), Grade 7


Harlow Playhouse is a premier creative hub in the East of England, featuring two auditoria, rehearsal spaces, dance studios, and a specialised aerial studio. We aim to enhance cultural experiences and foster healthier, happier communities through diverse programming and partnerships.

We host quality events in music, comedy, spoken word, dance, and circus arts across our 400-seat and 120-seat theatres, while supporting various artists and groups year-round.

We are currently seeking a Sound Technician to join our technical team. This role focuses on sound but also involves lighting, stage management, and flying. Reporting to the Technical Manager, responsibilities include maintaining backstage areas, operating sound equipment, liaising with incoming companies, and ensuring smooth performances.

Candidates should have knowledge of technical theatre, experience with digital consoles and networking, and the ability to rig and cable small to medium-scale setups. This is a valuable opportunity for skill development in a creative environment..

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

• Professional Growth:

The opportunity to design, rig and programme sound using the Yamaha DM7 and D&B XSL series.

• Long Term opportunity:

Harlow Playhouse will also undergo major developments over the next few years with the progression of the levelling-fund development plans that directly positively impact the expansion and development of Playhouse square. This will create an arts and cultural quarter with a diverse range of artistic, entertainment, cultural and heritage disciplines to establish a regional hub of innovative events.

• Collaborative Environment:

Harlow Playhouse values a culture of collaboration and innovation, providing a stimulating environment where employees can affect real development and change in the organisation.

• Networking:

The position offers extensive networking opportunities with professionals in the industry.

• Competitive Benefits:

Comprehensive benefits package including generous annual leave of 29 to 32 days plus bank holidays for Grade 7, an Employee Assistance Programme providing help and support to employees who may be going through a difficult time, option to enrol in the Local Government Pension Scheme, and an employee benefits scheme with various discounts and cash back schemes at a range of national retailers as well as local businesses.

Any offer of employment will be subject to satisfactory pre-employment checks. For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Ben Parsley, Technical Manager on 01279 446753

Our policies support our employees by enabling a positive work/life balance including flexible working where possible.  In addition to this, the Council offers many excellent employee benefits which include, pension scheme, generous annual leave entitlement, health and wellbeing initiatives, employee assistance programme and development opportunities.

Harlow Council is committed to equal opportunities and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.  People with disabilities will be offered an interview where they meet the Essential Criteria on the Employee Profile.
