• Inform the Charge Artist of inventory levels.

• Keeping the paint space organized and clean for maximum work space and to allow as many projects as possible to be worked on at the same time while allowing a safe path through the work area.

• Preparing touch up kits to go on site to repair damage sustained in transit.

• Always working with the Charge Artist to make sure that the projects are happening in a correct and timely fashion.

• Having good communication with the Charge Artist, Designers, Carpentry Staff and Operations Staff.  This is important for the look of projects and timing.  Things move quickly here and keeping up with where projects are is important.

Requirements:

Applicant must have a criminal background and drug test before employment.

 

Schedule:

There is no typical day, as each day can bring a new event and a new approach.  Tuesday you will receive your project assignments for the week and learn and grow with your scenic application. Painters also participate in technical set up and removal of events and provide paint support on event location.

Saturday involves loading in all rental items (bars, furniture, stages, drape, etc.) and installing a lighting design. The venue can be a hotel ballroom, a banquet hall, an outdoor tent, or many other different on-site event locations.  If all goes well, the event load-in is completed by 3 pm, and there is a break for the day.  A return would be between 10:30 pm and midnight to unload and strike the event into the trucks. Every effort is taken to remove events the next day. Two days a week off is the norm.

The year will present our high season and low season.  The low season is January to April, where hours are generally Tuesday through Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm.  The high season is May through December, where hours are usually Tuesday through Saturday from 8 am to 5-6 pm, and intense flexibility is needed for events that will happen mid-week or Sunday during this busy time of year. 

 

Ideal Candidate:

We are merely looking for a teachable, motivated, hardworking, self-sufficient, team player, and a pleasant individual to join our team.  If you have technical theater skills, that would be a plus but not a deal-breaker. No college degree is required. Reliable, consistent transportation is required. Hours will vary, therefore personal transportation is mandatory.

Pay begins at 20.00 with periodic pay increases based on merit. Time and a half for all hours over 40 in a week is paid. Room to advance.  Paid time off (PTO). Health and dental insurance is offered upon the start date. Frequent company meals provided. After one year of employment, a 401K retirement plan is available.

*The ideal applicant will be willing to grow with the position, have a  flexible schedule, be adaptable to change, available to travel, and must have a positive, upbeat attitude. A great deal of time has been made to cultivate a positive and pleasant working team environment.  If an applicant has a negative outlook, does not desire to be a team player, cannot adapt to a change in plan, or generally is unmotivated, this position is not the right fit. Drug and background testing is administered and required.

*additional helpful skills would be comfortableness driving a box truck or a willingness to learn.

FAQs: Relocation expenses not reimbursed; however, suggestions for housing is readily given.
