Volunteers
The Opotiki De Luxe Theatre is more than just a cinema!
The Opotiki Community Theatre Trust is always looking for volunteers to enable the Theatre team to screen more movie sessions for the Opotiki community. We need more people to help-out especially during busy times, which includes weekends and during the school holidays.
We have available both front-of house customer-facing volunteer roles as well as support roles, so there could be something for everyone.
Our front-of-house customer facing roles would suit people who may have had some retail experience in the past, would be comfortable operating our user-friendly Veezi/Cinema system and are customer service orientated. Our support roles would suit those who would like to contribute behind the scenes and are happy taking care of key jobs. This includes rolling ice-creams, making popcorn, cleaning, and assisting with governance roles such as health and safety and volunteer co-ordination, as well as helping out as theatre ushers when events are held in the big theatre
On the job training will be provided so experience is not absolutely necessary. Our team takes pride in ensuring that the Theatre is run to a very high professional standard so it is important that you are prepared to commit your time and be readily available on a roster basis.
- All relevant training provided
- Experience not absolutely necessary

Join the Team
The De Luxe Theatre is proudly owned and completely operated by the Opotiki community. An army of volunteers give whole heartedly to ensure that the Theatre runs consistently and to a professional standard. Over the years there have been many people who have dedicated their time and efforts simply because they believe in giving back to their community. Their love for the Theatre, in turn has created a lively culture, that has evolved and grown over time, with people from all backgrounds, ages and interests coming together regularly to be part of the De Luxe journey.
