Oddments are a Christian theatre charity, touring drama with a Christian message across the UK into churches, schools and prisons. We have a heart for mission, and a passion for creating innovative and thought-provoking drama, which tells a story of faith in an engaging way.
The Team Lead role is second-in-command to the charity’s director. This person works closely with the director to plan and produce productions and recruit actors. They are also involved with the administration team, helping to secure bookings, advertise productions and organise tour schedules.
During rehearsal and show periods, the Team Lead acts as a bridge between the acting team and the director, feeding information in both directions. They are often involved in directing, acting and touring themselves, and may take the team on tour with or without the Chairty Director.
The Team Lead should be someone with a heart for Oddments’ Christian mission, experience in leadership and an ability to balance different projects and tasks. They should be hard-working, confident around new people and should be living, or able to move, near to our base in Yeovil. We also require a UK driving licence, as the Team Lead may be required to drive company vehicles, including larger vehicles.
