Personnel Manager

The Orchestra Personnel Manager serves as the primary employment and logistical contact with all musicians (contract, substitutes and extras) performing with the NMPhil. Provides and assures that the proper complement of orchestra musicians are hired for each individual piece of music performed at every rehearsal, concert and recording session as well as other events involving musicians, and for handling all administrative matters related to such activities. The Orchestra Personnel Manager develops, with the Operations staff, logistical needs for the orchestra for services at the various venues, as well as all runout and tour services if they occur. Prepares the payroll for the orchestra, including salary, per diem data, penalty payments, union dues, seniority, streaming fees, and medical leave. The Orchestra Personnel Manager must know and adhere to the Collective Bargaining Agreement between NMPhil management and the local AFM on all applicable matters as well as the Integrated Media Agreement (IMA) with AFM.
