Kiss My Axe is looking for a hands-on Part-Time Venue Manager to lead the day-to-day operations of our Brookvale venue.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced hospitality or entertainment supervisor who is ready to take ownership of a venue. You’ll lead the team, maintain high operational standards and make sure every customer has an outstanding experience.
