We’re looking to connect with experienced and enthusiastic props professionals interested in joining our team on a casual or seasonal basis.

Across our venues, we produce a diverse range of theatre productions, each bringing its own creative challenges—from finely detailed hand props and large-scale scenic pieces to specialist sourcing, practical effects and technical builds.

Prop making, fabrication and finishing

Sculpting, moulding and casting

MIG and TIG welding

Electronics, wiring and practical effects

Upholstery and soft furnishings

Furniture construction and restoration

Buying, sourcing and hiring props

Research, budgeting and production coordination

Props supervision and team leadership

We’re interested in meeting people with a wide range of experience, practical abilities and creative approaches.

Opportunities may include short-term engagements, casual work, production contracts and seasonal support, depending on our program and workshop requirements.

You’ll be joining a collaborative and highly skilled team, working closely with designers, production managers, stage management and other theatre departments to bring ambitious ideas to life.

If you’re practical, resourceful, enjoy problem-solving and have an interest in creating work for the stage, we’d be very pleased to hear from you.
