Stage Manager / Event Coordinator for Kulturværftet and Toldkammeret

Do you have an overview, practical sense and a desire to be part of creating great cultural experiences – both on stage and behind the scenes?

Cultureværftet and Toldkammeret are seeking a production leader/event coordinator who can take responsibility for the practical execution of concerts, cultural events and gatherings and at the same time engage broadly in the tasks related to production and operation of a modern cultural house.

We are looking for a colleague who thrives on a workday where the tasks change. Some hours you are in the middle of a concert production with responsibility that the audience, artists, technicians and volunteers experience a smoothly run event. Other hours you work with preparation for upcoming events, practical production tasks or the development of our hosting.

The position is intended as a combined role, where the working hours around the events are actively used for other relevant tasks in the house.

Your tasks

As a production leader/event coordinator you will be part of the daily production at Kulturværftet and Toldkammeret. Tasks will include:

• production leadership and practical execution of concerts and events
• practical tasks in the production department before, during and after events
• focus on good hosting and how we continuously can improve the audience and guest experience of Kulturværftet and Toldkammeret
• contribute to coordinating, planning and supporting the house's volunteers
• technical and production-related preparations in collaboration with the house's other staff.

The position offers a varied workday where tasks change in line with different production phases. There will therefore be periods where the focus is on the actual execution, and others where time can naturally be used for preparation, coordination or practical tasks in the house.

We are looking for a person who thrives with this variation and who can independently prioritize between execution, preparation and other production-related tasks.

We imagine that you

• have experience with execution of concerts, cultural events, events or similar
• work independently and take responsibility that tasks are completed
• have practical and preferably technical understanding and are not afraid to roll up your sleeves
• can collaborate with many different people – from artists and technicians to volunteers, audience and colleagues
• have an eye for service and good hosting
• have good digital skills and a desire to work data-driven with planning, systems and workflows
• can work on both weekdays, evenings and weekends, as the main part of our cultural program is carried out outside normal office hours

You do not necessarily need to be able to do everything from day one. The most important thing is that you understand event production, are practically oriented and want to develop yourself and take responsibility across several areas of work.
