• Venue Coordination: Liaise with venues to ensure co-hosting and visibility requirements are met, maintaining a strong working relationship from booking through to show day.
• Internal Handover: Provide timely, accurate handover of all booking details to musicians, staffing, content and ads teams with clean internal records that require minimal follow-up.
