The Role
This is a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiastic and highly motivated individual who thrives on responsibility to join us as an Assistant Venue Manager at Carnegie Hall Theatre in Dunfermline.

As Assistant Venue Manager, you will be the key leader within Carnegie Hall, overseeing the day-to-day operation of the venue and ensuring the delivery of outstanding experiences for audiences, artists, promoters, and partners.

This role requires someone who can work independently and make informed decisions, as there is no senior manager permanently based at the venue. You will be trusted to take ownership of operational requirements, health & safety, compliance, licensing, safeguarding, operational procedures, administration, rotas, budgets, financial tasks and programming activity.

You will be a key front facing figure, responsible for the promotion of services within Carnegie Hall and be responsible for all aspects of people management of your team.

This is a full-time post, and your days and hours of working will flex to meet the business needs, and this will include weekend and evening working.

You’ll be an experienced approachable people manager who thrives at a challenge, excels at building strong relationships and has a passion for providing excellent customer service, ideally within a Theatre, hospitality or visitor/customer facing venue.

You’ll also have strong IT skills along with a sound understanding of Health & Safety, Licencing and venue operations. You will have good commercial awareness and experience in managing budgets and financial performance.
