You will work a regular management roster across multiple venues while also providing leadership coverage when other Venue Managers are on annual leave or unavailable. Rather than managing the same venue every night, you will develop a strong understanding of each operation, its team and its customers. You'll need to be comfortable stepping into different environments, taking ownership of the shift and maintaining consistently high operational standards.
