Tbh that one isn't a job anyone here would want. You'd barely get to set foot on site during the show days.

Tip is to get your foot in the door somewhere and work up.......I work a more background role, but get to go to events because I do a lot of background admin for them, then they need help at them and we are first port of call.

Poor rate for the job description and what they are looking for, considering the litter pickers are on £13.50ph and an SIA Supervisor will be on around £15ph.

This one also seems ridiculously low pay considering the skills needed and the responsibilities. Sure everyone has a price and no doubt theres some perks, but £12.50ph to oversee a large part of the festivals logistics for 20 days. Bit tight if you ask me.

£150 a day for that role is about what the going rate is, but yes it's a bit low.

 

It is an entry level job so will suit a recent grad or similar, plus a foot in the door at the biggest event in the UK.

That's a long "12/14 hours a day" for that sort of money though. But yea, like you say it's a foot in for someone.

Theatre & Circus wandering performer fits the bill but keep the drunk a little bit discreet 😉

True. You can't be fully sober to do some of that stuff.

Ideal job in t and c. Sitting down in a motorised goldfish bowl floating around the site, discreetly drinking. Smiling at everyone. The smell of the flowers disguising the booze.
