Why You Will Be Excited About This Role

This isn't your average role. As Assistant Venue Manager for our two Sydney venues, you’ll play a key role in organising and overseeing the hire and operational delivery of event equipment and venue spaces for a diverse range of corporate and business clients. From AV systems and staging to lighting and furniture, you’ll manage the end-to-end coordination of equipment setup, maintenance, and presentation across our flexible venue spaces.

You'll be part of a company known for creating remarkable experiences — and you’ll be empowered to make them happen.
