Sure. As PM in our organization I am responsible for the budgeting and scheduling for all of our productions and our facilities. I hire all of our technicians (electricians, board ops, carpenters, stichers, over hire hands, etc.), and many of our designers. I supervise our two stage managers, our TD, and company manager. I am responsible for payroll for anything production related, and reconcile all of our open accounts (lumber and steel accounts, credit cards, Home Depot, etc.). I also serve as a laison to our Board of Directors along with our Managing Director and out Artistic Director, which, in our case, means I present pre and post show budget reports, and a facilities and equipment report a few times a year. I usually do at least one sound or lighting design a season as well.
