The Theatre and Dance Department at Austin Peay State University is seeking a Shop Manager to support the technical and production operations of the department. This position serves as the primary supervisor of the scene shop and is responsible for overseeing all aspects of scenic construction, including building sets, managing materials and tools, and maintaining a safe and productive shop environment.

The Shop Manager will work alongside students in a hands-on capacity, demonstrating proper use of tools, equipment, paint techniques, and construction methods as they relate to scenic production.
