In business since 1928, Atthowe is now a worker-owned company exclusively dedicated to the handling of fine art. Our Special Projects Department (an exciting, fast-growing part of the company) is looking for a Lead Fine Art Rigger (Head Rigger) - a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on technician and leader with an expert and unique skill set. This will be someone who can build a team, motivate and train others, and be part of the company’s growth. The Head Rigger will help plan and execute large-scale art installations. They must be able to command respect and lead a team installing high-value art-work - always maintaining the safety of the people involved and the art they hold. The art can be big, and it can be small. Site conditions will vary, sometimes in a high-visibility museum setting, other times inside a quiet private residence; or maybe on a public street working high overhead, or on a loud construction site. This person will work closely with Project Managers and the Crew Manager and report to the Head of Special Projects. They will help develop and implement a rigging training program, develop means and methods for projects, and oversee equipment standards. Truly a chance to create an A-team and set impeccable standards. Atthowe Fine Art Services prides itself on successfully completing “impossible” projects. Expect to be challenged.
