This role oversees the establishment of production standards, operational processes, and workflows, covering aspects including bookings, venues, infrastructure, equipment, logistics, data collection, contractor management, and scheduling. The role also collaborates closely with colleagues across the organisation to integrate operational considerations, including budget allocation, into the planning and design of events and programs.

- **Build relationships** **with key internal stakeholders** to ensure any operational issues can be resolved efficiently, minimising any impact on audiences or operations.
- **Foster a positive, inclusive and approachable team culture,** promoting open collaboration across Audience Engagement, Commercial, and Philanthropic teams.
- **Champion a process of continuous improvement **by implementing audience surveys and review processes, capturing audience and operational insights, to enhance and improve the delivery of Library experiences.
