Established in 1994, our award-winning venues have been hosting events for over 30 years, including comedy, music, drag, podcasts, talks/Q&As & spoken word. Described by The Guardian as “enormously well-regarded”, we pride ourselves on a commitment to excellence & innovation in live events.
We are committed to diversity and inclusion, and are keen to attract people of different backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. We particularly encourage applications from historically underrepresented communities for all roles. Just like our venues are designed for everyone, so is our workplace, and we work hard to create an inclusive culture for everyone.
The Glee Club Cardiff is located in Mermaid Quay, in Cardiff Bay. We have a 450 seat auditorium, where we hold our live stand up comedy shows every Thursday, Friday & Saturday evening. We also host touring comedy shows and live music, drag & spoken word during the week.
We are looking for an enthusiastic and hardworking person, with experience in sound & lighting to join our tech team. The majority of our shows are simple stand-up comedy shows that require a basic knowledge of audio engineering and how to operate a Chamsys lighting desk. We are looking for someone confident, who can stay calm under pressure and can problem solve and troubleshoot if and when things go wrong. Your role will be to run and oversee the entire sound, lighting and staging aspects of our comedy, music & cabaret shows.
