Job description

OVERVIEW

The Corn Exchange is a multi-venue arts organisation which presents a wide range of artistic work and creative activity throughout the year, both at its Newbury-based venues and in the wider community in West Berkshire.

The Corn Exchange is a growing, dynamic and exciting organisation in the South East, with a 400 seat auditorium, a 40 seat cinema, a café bar and a busy learning centre presenting workshops and classes and other activity which has a positive impact on individuals and our community. The Corn Exchange also includes 101 Outdoor Arts, a nationally recognised facility to support and nurture artists creating ambitious outdoor productions for audiences across the UK and internationally, as well as programming and managing The Base Greenham, a visual arts gallery which is also home to resident artists and a workshop space.

In 2026 opened our new facility – the Old Library – as our new learning centre studio, a space for community connection and collaboration and a bespoke 94 seated performance space.

Job Purpose

As a trainee within our Technical team, you will be helping us to provide first class technical support to all incoming shows and events that take place both on our stage at the Corn Exchange Theatre, and in our studio theatre at The Old Library. Both venues are based in the town centre in Newbury. This is a varied role with lots to keep you interested – no two days are the same!

You will have the opportunity to be involved in all the technical aspects of our shows, learning about sound, lighting and staging for our live events.

We’re looking for a positive and welcoming person who is happy to help across a range of tasks, working a mix of daytime and evening shifts, including shows in the evenings and at weekends.

You don’t have any past technical experience, just be interested in live arts, and with a quizzical mind and a curiosity about how things work and what goes on ‘backstage’.

This role does include physical tasks, including lifting and some working at height. Training will be provided for everything you will be asked to do.

Main Duties

To work with the technical team, assisting visiting companies to stage their event, including load-ins, get-outs and show operation duties.
To assist with rigging and operating lighting and sound equipment for all theatre and live performance events at the Corn Exchange.
Assist with seating and staging layout changes as required in all venues.
To learn about programming and scheduling of films in the Cinema on a regular weekly basis.
To work as a show crew member on stage or as follow spot operator for the seasonal run of the Pantomime once fit-up is completed.
To work with the other technicians, making sure all technical areas are clean, safe and efficiently organised.
To work on outdoor events and activities at 101 Outdoor Arts when required, assisting the technical team with all technical and production preparations.
To adhere to our Health and Safety, GDPR and Safeguarding policies in carrying out all aspects of the role.

Please note that this is a guide to the nature of the work required. It is not wholly comprehensive or restrictive and may be reviewed with the post holder and the line manager from time to time.
