Assistant Business Managers
Application due February 1, 2023
The three Business Managers work cooperatively to manage the box office, concession stand, publicity and marketing, and front of house operations of the theatre.
Each business manager will be responsible for the marketing and operations of three of the nine shows and will work as a team in managing the entire department. All team members will alternate duties in the management of marketing, box office, concession stand and front of house operations. Strong computer skills are essential; knowledge of various applications may include: Facebook, Instagram, Constant Contact, Google Suite, web site management, QuickBooks, CRM and ticketing software (i.e., Patron Manager), Canva, MS Publisher, etc.
When managing your three shows your tasks will include creative publicity, writing press releases, placing media advertising, creating and posting digital content, running posters, and coordinating the printing of the weekly program. This includes taking and posting production photos of each show and making revisions from time to time as instructed.
The Business Manager is supervised by the General Manager and the Executive and Artistic Director. Successful candidates are generally graduate students or older undergraduates with experience and interest in arts administration and non-profit management. The job requires a well-organized, out-going and engaging personality, honesty and integrity, tact, patience and intelligence.
The schedule is both demanding and highly rewarding. While one show is being performed in the evening, the following week's show is being rehearsed during the day. There are six performances of each show, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m., and 2:00 p.m. matinee performances on Wednesday and Thursday. The box office is open from 10 AM to 4 PM Monday through Saturday as well as during evening performances from around 6:30-10 PM.
In addition to the regular season of nine shows, CLOC proudly participates in events that elevate our local community of Falmouth, MA. Examples of such events include a Juneteenth Celebration, an Independence Day Concert, a performance at the local Arts Alive Festival, as well as volunteer-based opportunities. The Business Staff will assist in marketing, organizing and staffing these events.
All Company members are assigned chores that help keep the campus and theatre running.
Company members are responsible for their own transportation to and from Falmouth, MA. The company will provide transportation from the Falmouth Depot or the Bourne Bus Station to our West Falmouth Campus.
Business staff members must arrive on campus by 5:00 p.m. on Thursday June 1, 2023 and depart by noon on Sunday August 20, 2023.
The entire company is required to participate in the final strike on the evening of Saturday August 19th, 2023.
Exceptions to these dates will be considered for students who must leave early to attend school.
Assistant business managers receive a stipend, room, and board.
