Large high-quality Costumer with an extensive national presence is looking to fill an immediate opening. This is a “fun” position with very few rigid rules and guidelines, so self-starters are desired. We are looking for creative, intelligent people with good verbal skills. The ideal candidate would have experience in the following fields: Theatrical productions, prop or "object" creation, mascot construction, sewing, clothing construction, retail sales, business management, retail display, verbal and written communication, managing others, and basic scheduling. One doesn't have to have experience in all these fields but, it helps. The position is never boring. The work changes every day. Some days you will be pulling together a group of costumes for a professional theatrical production, the next you will be talking about make-up to a film director. Later you might be designing and working on creating an NFL team mascot, then creating costumes for a convention. Depending on experience one might: sketch & design outfits, buy fabric & forecast costs, construct outfits, work with retail customers, organize costumes and accessories for large events, work on retail displays, meet with directors to discuss productions, help customers with theatrical make-up & wigs, alter costumes for costume rentals, and much more. We are looking for a full-time employee that has aspirations toward moving on to managing, and running large projects. We are also looking for part-time and full-time help in an all-around capacity. Unlike most theatre jobs, this is full time (or part time) and long-term steady employment. We are looking for someone who wants to stay with us. We are also looking to fill some seasonal Halloween and Xmas positions too. If you want to work with creative people in a fun relaxed environment then fax us your resume at 215-925-9616, and follow up with a call us at 215-925-7121. Ask for Rich or Marie You may also look into our background by going to http://www.costumers.com Please ONLY inquire if you are local to Philadelphia, and can meet in person for and interview. We do not relocate people. We have a very large pool of talented locals, and want to draw from them for these positions.
