About Boomtown
Boomtown is one of the UK's most ambitious and creative cultural events.
Each year we build a temporary city filled with music, theatre, art, sustainability initiatives and immersive storytelling. We pride ourselves on creating extraordinary experiences for our audience, artists, partners and team.
We believe our workplace should reflect the same care, creativity and attention to detail that we bring to our festival.
About the Role
We are looking for someone to become the heart and soul of our HQ.
Part housekeeper, part organiser, part host, part concierge, part facilities coordinator and part workplace champion, you'll take ownership of the physical environment of our business and help create a workplace where exceptional people can do exceptional work.
This role is built on trust, ownership and initiative.
We're not looking for someone to simply complete a checklist of tasks. We're looking for someone who takes pride in creating exceptional environments, notices what needs attention before others do, and genuinely cares about the experience of the people around them.
You'll have the autonomy to shape the role, improve our workplace and become an integral part of the Boomtown team.
The Purpose of the Role
To create and maintain a best-in-class workplace environment that supports the health, wellbeing, productivity and creativity of our team.
You will take ownership of the day-to-day experience of everyone who works in or visits Boomtown HQ, ensuring the environment feels welcoming, organised, inspiring and operationally seamless.
Success in this role means our team can focus on doing their best work because everything around them simply works.
Working Pattern
This is a full-time role based at Boomtown HQ.
Our core office days are Monday to Thursday, when the majority of our team work from HQ. As such, the majority of this role's focus will be during these days, supporting the workplace experience, hospitality, concierge responsibilities and day-to-day operation of the office.
Working hours are:
Monday - Thursday: 8:00am - 4:30pmFriday: 8:00am - 2:00pm
A paid lunch break is included within these hours.
Fridays are typically work-from-home days for much of the team. The role therefore finishes at 2:00pm on Fridays, with the morning providing dedicated time for deeper housekeeping, workplace maintenance, storage organisation, workspace resets and continuous improvement projects that are best completed with minimal disruption.
This balance allows the role to remain highly visible and available to the team during busy office days, whilst creating protected time to maintain the exceptional standards we aspire to throughout our workplace.
Festival Period
During the annual festival build and event period, responsibilities may flex to support the changing needs of the business. Any temporary adjustments to duties, priorities or working patterns will be discussed and agreed in advance.
