Deputy Head of Sound

We are looking for a Deputy Head of Sound to join our brilliant Technical department. As Deputy Head of Sound, you will provide first class support in all aspects of sound for our productions, events and activities.

The Production and Technical department is an integral part of Chichester Festival Theatre (CFT), responsible for realising all shows and events across the site throughout the year. There is a small full time team across the Lighting, Sound, Stage and Costume disciplines, augmented by up to 60 additional staff including Wardrobe, WHAM and Props teams who are recruited seasonally as required by the productions.

The department ensures that productions created at CFT between April and November, as well as the touring productions hosted over the winter months, are created and run efficiently and effectively across our two modern, well equipped theatres, our studio venue and other spaces on site.

CFT produces a varied mixture of drama, musicals and world premieres, and the team gets the opportunity to work with the country’s leading creative artists. Many of CFT’s productions transfer to London or tour nationally and internationally. Throughout the year, CFT also hosts a number of other events and activities with which the department is fully engaged.
