The heart of Boston Ballet is the human experience. Through our living and breathing art, we forge human connections—between artist and attendee, teacher and trainee, friend and newcomer, one's outer and inner self. We believe that the community of employees that makes dance possible is better together when talented individuals with varied life experiences, identities, races, cultures, and ideas are welcomed, encouraged, and heard.
The Facilities and Operations Manager is responsible for the safe and efficient operation and maintenance of Boston Ballet’s studios/office spaces in Boston, Newton, Brookline, and other satellite locations. We’re looking for someone willing to roll up their sleeves to take ownership for the ongoing maintenance of these properties.
