Show Caller/Stage Manager: Advanced Systems Group

Show Caller/Stage Manager: Advanced Systems Group Show Caller/Stage Manager: Advanced Systems Group Company - Advanced Systems Group, LLC Seattle, WA Advanced Systems Group, LLC is hiring a Show Caller/Stage Manager for temporary, per-project work in Seattle, Washington. The role pays $80 to $90 per hour and supports live corporate events through cue calling, production coordination, and control-room communication. A minimum of five years as a show caller and live corporate event experience are required. The job opening connects clients, producers, and production staff during fast-moving shows. The work includes cues for video playback, picture-in-picture (PIP) look changes, slides, music, lighting, presenters, speakers, in-room projection, screens, and DSMs. Projects may last one day or longer. The opening works with technical and creative event-production personnel in a temporary per-project arrangement. Applicants should have a work history that demonstrates five years of show-calling experience and live corporate event work. The opening also calls for strong communication with clients and technical staff, responsiveness to questions, and reliable follow-through. Cue Calling For Corporate Shows The show caller shapes the overall event appearance from producer direction and client requests. The role converts those requests into a timed sequence that keeps presentations, technical changes, and speaker activity synchronized. Each decision must account for the relationship between the client request, the producer's direction, and the production staff responsible for carrying it out. Control-room performance depends on communication that remains precise when the run of show changes. The stage manager works with production personnel who handle technical and creative areas, then communicates the next cue with enough clarity for each team to act. A last-minute change requires a revised call, a quick check of the affected equipment or presenter, and a calm handoff to the people responsible for that part of the program. Production Coordination In Seattle The team works on business events where client expectations pass through a producer to the event-production staff. The show caller keeps those requests connected to the visible program, while technical staff handle the equipment and creative staff manage the content. This position combines client liaison work with direct coordination among people responsible for the show. The work covers events in Seattle through the same working relationship across each assignment. Communication with clients and technical staff must stay responsive, with updates and follow-through on queries. The work also calls for a service-oriented approach that keeps the production aligned with the client's requested result. Control Room Technology And Contingency Planning The position requires working knowledge of broadcast and production technology, A/V signal flow, and contingency planning. The show caller must recognize how a signal, screen, playback source, lighting state, or speaker change affects the rest of the program. Equipment failures and last-minute run-of-show changes require a response that protects the next usable cue instead of delaying the whole sequence. The technical qualification set includes several connected abilities: Calling cues for broadcast and live event systems Reading A/V signal flow well enough to identify affected production areas Planning alternatives for equipment failures Adapting to rapid changes in the run of show Working with technical and creative event-production personnel Five years of show-calling experience gives the role a practical base for these decisions. Live corporate event experience adds the client, presenter, speaker, and technology conditions that distinguish a corporate program from a rehearsal-only assignment. Per Project Work And Team Communication Each engagement can have its own client, producer, technical crew, creative staff, and program flow. The stage manager enters a new production with enough speed to understand the people, equipment, cue structure, and client priorities already in place. Temporary per-project work requires the ability to establish working relationships without a long transition period. Advanced Systems Group expects calm leadership and a team-first attitude in a fast-paced live environment. Multitasking is part of the work because cue preparation, client communication, and live show control can overlap. The role's responsiveness and follow-through keep production questions from remaining unresolved during the show cycle. Stage Management Experience And Growth Stage management combines production administration with live performance control. Rehearsal organization, prompt-book maintenance, blocking notes, schedule communication, backstage coordination, and technical cue calling form the field's core work. The stage management duties continue from early production planning through the final performance. Many people enter the field as stagehands or move through assistant stage manager roles before taking full stage manager assignments. Stage managers may later move into producing or directing, while technical theater experience can also lead to work in lighting, costuming, carpentry, or scenic painting. Those adjacent skills give a show caller more ways to understand the people and systems connected to a live production.
