Come and join GYC!

We are now building our company for 2027 seasons, as The Great Yorkshire Circus continues to grow into a bold, traditional touring production across the region.

​​​

We are recruiting a small, committed company for:

• An 8 to 10 week summer tour across Yorkshire (mid July - Mid September 2027)

• A 2 week Easter residency production (1st - 18th April 2027)

 

We are looking for:

​

Circus Artists
High quality, beautifully presented acts suitable for a family audience. Strong personality, timing and the ability to work within a narrative led show are essential. This is not a turn up and perform job. You are part of the company.

 

Drivers and Crew
Touring runs on good people who can get in, get out, and keep things moving. Car licence required as a minimum. HGV highly valued. Practical, hands on, no fuss approach needed.

 

Technicians
Sound, lighting and general production support. A small team who can turn a field into a theatre and back again. Flexibility and problem solving matter far more than ego.

 

This is a traditional all human circus, rooted in Yorkshire, with a focus on presentation, storytelling and audience connection. We are not chasing scale for the sake of it. We are building something that lasts.

 

You will be joining at the ground level of a growing production, with the opportunity to shape how it develops over the coming seasons.

 

Key details:

• Full availability required for contracted period

• Touring lifestyle with outdoor sites

• Accommodation options discussed on a case by case basis

• Yorkshire based applicants encouraged

 

If you want easy, this is not it. If you want to be part of something with real identity and ambition, then we should talk.

To apply, please send:

• Showreel or CV

• Role or discipline

• Availability

• Any relevant licences or experience
