Are you an experienced costume Cutter with a passion for turning designs into expertly crafted costumes? We are looking for a Cutter to interpret costume designs, draft patterns, and work closely with Designers and our Head of Wardrobe to bring each production to life!

In this role, you'll estimate and cut fabrics and oversee the progression of costume construction tasks. Working safely, efficiently, and creatively under pressure is key, as is keeping accurate, organised practices that meet tight production deadlines.

We're looking for someone with strong cutting and construction skills, a solid understanding of costume history, and significant experience in theatre, television or film. You'll be a calm, diplomatic communicator with excellent problem solving abilities, able to manage your own workload while supporting others.

If you're a skilled Cutter who enjoys collaboration, craftsmanship and bringing bold ideas from page to stage, we'd love to hear from you!
