Our Duty Managers look after the welfare of the public, supervise other staff and volunteers and play a large part in the technical aspects of our business including assisting with digital cinema projection. Training will be given but you should be confident working with computers and other equipment.

The right candidate be well presented, possess excellent spoken and written communication skills, be very well organised and can work cheerfully during busy shifts.

It is intended the two successful applicants hours together total 24 hours per week.

This role is offered on permanent contract basis. A six month probationary period is in place.

Pay is £10 per hour, paid monthly as a salary (FTE is £19,500 per annum). Paid overtime to provide cover is available.
