The Royal Ballet and Opera continues to lead the way in opera, ballet, music and dance both live on stage and through multiple digital platforms, from live streaming to worldwide cinema screenings.
This year we are offering two pathways into backstage production; one is the Creative Venue Technician pathway (three vacancies) and the other is our new Flys and Automation Technician pathway. The roles are on a fixed-term contract for 2 years, full-time (42.5 hours per week) and based at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.
The apprenticeship will be split between the RBO and Creative Alliance College. You will study for a Level 3 Creative Venue Technician Apprenticeship Standard/Scenic Automation Technician Apprenticeship Standard.
Will I be paid?
Yes! You will earn National Living Wage which will increase by 2.5% after successfully completing the first year. Apprentices are expected to use this to pay for their own travel to work and college. College fees will also be paid by the Royal Ballet and Opera.
