[Candrama] Job opportunity: SUNY Oswego Technical Director/Scene Shop Supervisor

[Toby Malone]

 Hello colleagues:

I hope you'll allow me to spread the word about a recently revised posting
for the position of Technical Director and Scene Shop Director at SUNY
Oswego. I'm aware that it's a little silly sending this posting to the
Canadian list given that there is no visa sponsorship available for this
position, but if you are qualified to work in the States we would love to
hear from you.

Many thanks!
