- Work collaboratively with internal creative, media, and strategy teams
- Brief and manage creative rollouts and media planning
- Use box office and performance data to make campaign decisions in real-time
- Lead client meetings, present campaign outcomes, and provide clear recommendations
- Mentor junior members of the team (e.g. Account Executives or Interns)
- Attend industry events, opening nights, and client shows as a brand ambassador

- Strong organisational and budget management skills
- Clear communicator, confident in presenting and managing stakeholder expectations
- Passion for theatre and the wider live entertainment industry
- Experience working in a fast-paced, multi-client environment
- Knowledge of ticketing strategies, sales KPIs, or campaign reporting (a plus)
