Job Description

We have an amazing opportunity for a Booking Manager to work in an iconic, intimate live music, art, and cultural venue in West London. The venue is steeped in history, with some incredible artists gracing the stage. This venue serves as a blank canvas and has hosted a multitude of events, including live music, club nights, cultural events, arts showcases, and private parties.

The ideal candidate should have knowledge of the live music scene, with a finger on current trends, and be able to source upcoming and emerging acts, artists, and bands that fit into the existing live music program. They must be capable of delivering a diverse array of music genres, ensuring that the nights are broad in talent and cater to all music tastes. The right candidate must be personable, self-motivated, bright, energetic, and extremely well-organised. A strong network of contacts within the music industry is imperative, and previous experience in booking jazz acts would be a distinct advantage.

The role will also cover all events and party bookings, so the ability to negotiate and sell the space is equally important. The position offers a very competitive salary of £40,000, plus the opportunity to earn an additional £8,000 in bonuses. You will manage your own time, and the role can be hybrid, with the potential to work from home.

This is a truly exciting opportunity, and interviews will be taking place over the next two weeks, so don’t delay in sending your CV!

Due to the high volume of applications, we regret that only candidates meeting the above criteria will be contacted. Please ensure you stay updated with all our new roles by visiting our website at www.jswrecruitment.com or following @jswhospitality on 'X'
