Full job description

ABOUT US:

With a mission to enrich the cultural life of our region, Birmingham Hippodrome is one of the most popular theatre complexes in the UK. Varied productions in our 1,850-seat auditorium (dating from 1899), and in our 200-seat Patrick Studio ensure we play a key role in the region’s world-class cultural scene. With c.400 live performances annually in our main house, we present nothing but the best in touring musical theatre, ballet, dance, opera, pantomime, drama, and comedy. Our Patrick Studio welcomes a range of smaller-scale productions and is an important base for dance and for the development of new artistic work.

"Working with the Facilities team at Birmingham Hippodrome has been a rewarding experience over the past six years. Maintaining high standards of safety and functionality is a priority I take seriously, and I'm proud to be part of what keeps this dynamic cultural hub thriving." - Faz Munna, Facilities Manager

ABOUT THE ROLE:

The Facilities team play a crucial role in ensuring Birmingham Hippodrome is a safe place to visit and work and the building is maintained to the highest standards, with a proactive approach to maintenance. The Facilities team manages and maintains the various building systems and services to ensure its proper functioning, security, safety, and efficiency.

As part of the Facilities team and under the direction of the Facilities Manager, the Facilities Operative will undertake scheduled and reactive maintenance tasks, ensuring that they are carried out to the highest standards within agreed timescales. The Facilities Operative will ensure that they operate in line with Birmingham Hippodrome's policies & procedures and all relevant statutory requirements. With a focus on Health & Safety, the environment, and sustainability, the Facilities Operative will assist the Facilities Electrician, Facilities Plumber, Facilities Manager and the Head of Facilities to ensure that the building's systems and services are maintained and operated to the highest standards, minimising equipment down time and ensuring repairs are completed in a timely manner.

This role is permanent and will cover 40 hours per week, split into 5 shifts of 8 hours. Shifts are allocated in advance on a rota basis and shared across the Facilities team. Most shifts are Monday-Friday (usually 08:00-17:00), but there will be the occasional requirement to work on evenings (usually 12:30-21:00) and weekends.

ABOUT YOU:

We're looking for someone with a wide range of hands-on experience of maintenance, who has worked in a large building - preferably a high-footfall venue. You'll need a good general knowledge of building maintenance, painting, woodworking, and lamp replacement. You'll have a good standard of literacy, numeracy and IT skills, including using Office 365.

OUR ESTATE:

Birmingham Hippodrome estate is based in Southside, Birmingham, and includes:

  • Our main auditorium (seating 1850) and stagehouse

  • A multi-format studio theatre (seating 209)

  • Associated rehearsal studios

  • Public, operational and administrative spaces

  • The Southside Building, let as commercial office space.

  • Parts of the estate are occupied by partner organisations (Birmingham Royal Ballet, FABRIC, One Dance UK).

Recognising under-representation in our workforce of the global majority, and people with disabilities, we particularly welcome applicants from those backgrounds.
