You will be responsible for planning and managing all key Festival operations, including organising venues, festival staff (including volunteers) and Box Office. You will work with the Festival Director by contributing to additional programming and helping to develop our profile so that we reach as wide an audience as possible, locally and nationally. The role has a focus on logistics and delivery but has creative or development opportunities for the right candidate.

You will be joining a small and busy team so you need to be able to multi-task and think on your feet. A natural problem solver, you will be able to take personal responsibility for your own work as well as contributing to the team. You will have the ability to establish robust working relationships and with a strong commitment to excellence, you will deliver a top quality experience for speakers, audiences, supporters and sponsors. Excellent communications skills are a must as is attention to detail.
