Job Description

Company Description: The PAC Collective is an independently owned and operated dance competition group committed to creating exceptional experiences for dance studios, teachers, dancers, and families. Our family of dance competition brands includes Precision, LUXXE, Moxie, and KUDO. Each brand offers its own unique experience, but they share the same commitment to experience, excellence, and supporting dance studio owners.

Touring Roles

\n
• Judges - Our judges like to inspire and educate while providing valuable critiques for young artists. With PAC Collective, our judges must be more than just knowledgeable. We are looking for high-energy, team players with experience in ALL styles of dance.
\n
• Video, Lights, and Data - VLD operates all video and lighting equipment in addition to setting up and programming lights. Proficiency in technology is a requirement, but training in the lighting and data software will be provided.
\n
• Tabulations - Tabulators oversee the judging panel and manage scoring and award placements. They must be proficient with technology and have a basic understanding of dance competitions.
\n
• Backstage Coordinators - Backstage coordinators manage the backstage area and maintain the flow of the show. They must have strong communication skills. Experience in theater/stage crew is a plus, but not required.
\n
• DJs/Emcees - DJs at PAC bring the energy to the event! In addition to setting up all the sound equipment and operating the soundboard during the event, DJs choose music to energize the audience, announce each routine as dancers enter the stage, and announce certain awards with great enthusiasm.
\n
• Photographer - Photographers at PAC go beyond your typical photographer role. They capture the event, but also set up the photo and video equipment, which will sort and upload their photos throughout the show. All photos will be distributed as-is; no editing will be required.
\n
• Support Staff - Support staff are trained to cover 3 roles: merchandise selling, awards coordinating, and being a runner. Merchandise sellers at PAC are the face of the company! They are often the first face clients, parents, and dancers see. We are looking for energetic individuals with a passion for building relationships! Awards coordinators communicate directly with the tabulator to assign adjudications to each trophy that will be received by the dancers. Runners keep the show moving! Assisting the backstage coordinator, they will run to get dancers who are coming up next, check in on costume changes, etc. Runners are also the face of PAC, as they frequently communicate with clients.
