Dynasty Typewriter | Job Opening
Director of Operations
The Role
We’re seeking a Director of Operations who excels at people management, thrives on organization, and is energized by behind-the-scenes work at live events, organizing, and optimizing operations to bring creative visions to life. You’ll lead our team of house managers and venue staff with clarity, confidence, and care—and act as an ambassador for our culture of kindness, hospitality, and collaboration.
This role is both boots-on-the-ground and strategy-facing. You’ll work hands-on to deliver excellent events, while also contributing to long-term planning, financial oversight, and venue growth. You’ll be the connective tissue between departments—making sure that everyone from the audience to the artists to the staff feels seen, supported, and set up for success.
Responsibilities
Oversee all aspects of day-to-day venue operations and event execution
Lead, train, schedule, and support the front-of-house team (house managers, door staff, ushers, etc.)
Oversee staff scheduling, support hiring processes, and help conduct performance reviews and feedback sessions
Foster accountability by setting clear expectations, providing feedback, and addressing issues proactively and constructively
Serve as the primary on-site operations lead during performances
Maintain a strong, communicative, and healthy staff culture rooted in respect, kindness, and hospitality
Maintain a high level of professionalism and discretion when working with talent, performers, and high profile guests
Act as the bridge between venue departments—tech, talent, production, hospitality—to ensure everything flows
Maintain safety protocols, cleanliness standards, and operational readiness across all systems
Manage vendor relationships, coordinate building maintenance, and ensure compliance with city regulations
Adapt quickly to changing circumstances and priorities in a fast-paced, live-event environment—and thrive while doing it
Recognize that excellence lives in the small details—whether it's signage, lighting, or a perfectly timed cue—because they create the magic our guests and artists feel
Contribute to financial oversight, including budget tracking, cost control, and analysis of P&L statements
Identify operational efficiencies and revenue opportunities to support business growth and enhance the guest and artist experience
Represent the spirit and values of Dynasty Typewriter with every interaction—whether with artists, audience members, or team members

You have 5+ years of experience in venue, event, or production operations, with a strong background in staff management and leadership
You’re a calm, grounded presence and a clear communicator, especially in high-pressure situations
You naturally lead with empathy and enjoy building environments where people feel welcome, empowered, and valued
You’re passionate about hospitality and see operational excellence as a form of care
You’ve worked with budgets and P&Ls before, and know how to make operational decisions with the bottom line in mind
You have experience in marketing and social media, especially in a venue or live events context, and understand how operations can support audience engagement and brand alignment
You’re energized by systems, strategy, and creating spaces where both magic and margins can thrive
You’re excited to be a part of a creative team that prioritizes connection, kindness, and community
You’re excited to contribute to a culture of continuous improvement by receiving feedback with openness and actively seeking ways to grow personally and professionally
