For over a century Watford Palace has created great theatre, comedy and events. Our guests are at the heart of our work, but what really makes us tick are our people. To our peers we’re a top-class regional curator of innovative performance and community engagement – but we know that the true magic behind the curtain is the heart and vision of our staff. If you want to be part of an organisation that values its employees and freelancers, read on.

We cast actors, and employ technicians and creatives, but we offer a range of roles, including administrators, marketers, and drama facilitators – all playing a part in making our theatre look and feel amazing. We also have training and young talent opportunities, so please take a look below for all our current opportunities.
