Chipping Norton Theatre is a restlessly busy and ambitious theatre and arts centre in the Cotswolds. Bringing over 50,000 people every year to a town of little over 6,000, The Theatre delivers a year-round programme of theatre, comedy, music, film and participatory activities for audiences across the region. More recently, we have grown as a producing house, creating three major productions each year and growing a stronger and more loyal audience as a result.

The Theatre, sited in a Victorian former Salvation Army Citadel, is a charming and warm environment for this wide range of activities. In addition to the main 200+ seat auditorium, we have a range of workshop and rehearsal spaces and a gallery exhibiting local and national artists.

Our customer welcome is a key part of our success. Full of character, knowledgeable about the work we host, and deeply rooted in the local community, our front of house team consists of 2-3 established posts, a number of paid casual bar staff, and a large pool of hard-working volunteer ushers.

We are recruiting for a confident, warm and welcoming person to join our team as Deputy House Manager. This role is a mixture of administrative work, managing our volunteer Ushers, Duty Management of performances and servicing/stocking The Theatre’s bar. It is a full time role, with flexible hours to include a decent proportion of evening and weekends. Some additional hours can be added should this be suitable for both parties.

Please note we are also recruiting for a new casual Duty Manager.
