This is not your average position. The ideal candidate can’t be put into a box.  

 

You are second-in-command at the country’s newest theater. You are a jack of all trades and a master of most. You know it all but are desperate to learn more. You quickly recognize problems so you can live in the solution. Resourcefulness fuels you. Get it done comforts you. Self-aware, confident, attentive. You have a zest for life, take directorial notes in stride, and maintain a spirit of grit, determination, and passion.  

 

“The finish line is where I like to pull up and start from 

Experience is just a place that I go to get the answers from 

Worry is a boost that I use to get the job done 

Fear is a space I like to think that I’m far from 

My computer is the one thing I hate to be apart from 

Bet against me, don’t know where they get their odds from  

I know that when the task done, I’m moving on to the next one  

And through it all, I still don’t know where I get the calm from”

 

Does this describe you? If so, keep reading.
