Wardrobe Assistant

Wardrobe Assistant - Ascot (Seasonal) - LaplandUK Live Site, Ascot. Role Overview: There are 3 sub departments within wardrobe, with a dedicated team assigned to each for the duration of the run. Our closest area to an ensemble or crowd, Groups operates as a high‑energy, fast‑paced environment. Each day we dress over 200 elves, allocated to 15 different costume designs, ensuring consistency, quality, and quick turnaround. The Principals team supports 50 performers each day, dressing them across 28 unique characters. This department requires precise continuity management and a highly organised dressing workflow to meet performance demands. Dedicated exclusively to our most iconic role, this department looks after 50 Father Christmas performers throughout the day, maintaining costume standards, grooming requirements, and smooth transitions from arrival to their Hut. The show runs each day from 8 am to 6 pm, with a new audience starting their journey through the show every half an hour. The Show is comprised of roughly 1.5hrs scripted performance as well as 1.5hrs magical free time in the Elven Village before visiting Father Christmas himself. The Wardrobe Department Shifts are separated into AM 6 am – 1500 and PM 14:45 – 11:45. The Show runs 7 days a week, the wardrobe tracks will be 5 days on 2 days off with no promise of weekend days off. This is an amazing opportunity to be part of a large team, in a fun and fast paced environment. We are looking for 14 Wardrobe Assistants and 6 Senior wardrobe Assistants per site to help deliver this year's shows and make it the most memorable yet. We are committed to supporting development and nurturing our teams. Our aim is to find team members that will want to return year upon year and be part of our exciting ever-growing department.
