Three heads of department, two officers, a senior technician and a supervisor are being sought

An opera house has created seven new jobs as part of its expansion plans.

Bosses at Jersey Opera House said they were looking for three heads of department, two officers, a senior technician and a supervisor.

A spokesperson for the opera house said the new roles formed part of plans to grow its programme and activity.

They added the team was also keen to hear from people who would like to work at the venue on a casual basis.

Jersey Opera House reopened in October 2025 after a five-year closure for a £12.7m government-funded refurbishment to mark its 125th anniversary.

In July, police chief Robin Smith was appointed as the chairman of the venue.

He succeeded interim chair Laura Robertson, who had taken on the role last year and appointed former UK theatre director Sebastian Warrack as chief executive.
