## Description

Set Builder ( Expression of Interest )

**Cavalry is building a pool of experienced Set Builders for upcoming projects.**

We’re looking for practical, hands-on set builders who can help bring simple set elements to life — from **kitchen flats and walls through to staircases, platforms and other basic structures**.

This is an opportunity for skilled makers who enjoy getting stuck into the build and can work efficiently, economically and to a high standard.

### What you’ll be doing

-   Building basic set elements and structures to project requirements
-   Constructing items such as kitchen flats, walls, staircases and platforms
-   Working from drawings, references or straightforward briefs
-   Using materials efficiently and working to budget
-   Ensuring builds are safe, sturdy and fit for purpose
-   Working independently or alongside a small production team
-   Adapting quickly to different project requirements and timelines

### What we’re looking for

-   Previous experience in **set building, scenic construction, carpentry, theatre, events, film/TV or similar**
-   Strong practical construction and making skills
-   Comfortable working with common tools and materials
-   Able to interpret basic plans, drawings and measurements
-   Resourceful, reliable and solutions-focused
-   A good eye for detail and a focus on quality
-   Ability to work to deadlines and within an agreed budget

### The opportunity

We’re particularly interested in hearing from **economical, capable set builders** who can take on smaller-scale builds without the need for a full design or production team.

This is an **Expression of Interest**, so we’ll keep your details on file and reach out when a suitable project comes up.

**Interested? We’d love to hear from you.**
