In-Person Classes

Oversee & Facilitate in-person classes & events. You will be tasked with checking-in actors, making sure readers & instructors arrive, and coordinating with the staff supervisor to get our daily in-person events off the ground.
Set Up Cameras / Troubleshoot Technical Issues as most of our events & classes are on-camera and recorded. You will be responsible for setting each room up according to the specifications laid out by the programming team (chairs, camera, SD card, TV monitor, etc) along with troubleshooting any technical issues that may arise in the class. When the class has ended, you will be tasked with uploading the videos from the SD card into DropBox for our team to send out to the actors the next morning.
Be a Warm & Friendly Face and Ambassador for the Studio to both actors & industry instructors who may at times be stressed, confused, or upset. You will need to clearly communicate the studio’s policies & expectations in a polite, respectful but yet firm manner.
Maintain Studio Cleanliness involves daily inspection of each classroom, light vacuuming and cleanup if needed, making sure the studio is clear of trash, taking out the trash bags when needed, and informing the Associate Office Manager & Office Manager when technical equipment & studio facilities need further attention (broken camera, classroom in need of repainting, etc).

Customer Service

Excellent Customer Service Skills via email & in-person. You will need to know the studio’s policies inside and out and be able to convey them to actors in a polite but yet firm manner.
Ability to Multitask in a Fast Paced Environment where you will need to juggle daily tasks from the studio’s multiple departments along with requests from actors & industry instructors who may approach you with requests & concerns. You must have strong time management skills and be extremely organized.
Administrative Support for our programming team involves calling actors regarding date/time changes to events they are signed up for, following up for payment & outstanding balances, and administrative tasks involving spreadsheets & docs.
Ability to hold clear boundaries while maintaining compassion for our community. Every once and while, you will be required to engage with members or instructors with big personalities and big demands. We will empower you to handle these situations with grace and confidence.
