HOURS:
Full Time, including evenings, weekends and holidays

Salary: $75-$80k Annually

Major Broadway theatre owner and operator is seeking a Customer Experience Director to join our Theatre Operations team. Direct experience with theatrical performance is not required.

As a Customer Experience Director (CED), you are an enthusiastic, relationship-driven communicator who supports the management team across administrative duties, performance management, and day-to-day operational needs. You’ll gain hands-on exposure to every corner of Theatre Management while working closely with our Deputy and General Managers — an ideal steppingstone toward joining ATPAM and advancing into DGM or GM roles.

This role serves as a key member of the theatre’s front-of-house leadership, acting as the manager on duty during performances and ensuring a smooth, welcoming, and guest-focused experience for all audiences. CEDs also play an important part in maintaining team connection, supporting clear communication, and contributing to a positive, energized workplace culture. The position helps create moments that celebrate wins, foster collaboration, and strengthen staff morale — all while supporting the operational heartbeat of our theatres.

This role is part of a high-energy, detail-focused team that keeps our theatres, and the hit shows within them running seamlessly inside a collaborative, respectful, and mission-driven company.

• You are someone who loves dreaming up fun ways to celebrate wins, keep communication lively, and make the team feel connected
• You are tuned in to team morale and naturally notice when support, encouragement, or connection is needed
• You are a hands-on person who approaches every problem with a positive attitude, and not afraid to get your hands dirty when necessary – no task too big or too small
• You are motivated to find solutions to problems
• You are a highly resourceful team-player who can take direction but can also take initiative and work independently on projects from conception to completion
• You are a flexible person, comfortable with situations and projects that may change rapidly, and can respond constructively and positively in challenging circumstances

• You have experience as a team leader in a customer service or hospitality environment
• You can work independently with minimal supervision
• You are highly organized and diligent, have attention to detail and follow through
• You are a strong and effective communicator and can clearly and concisely express ideas both verbally and in writing. Bilingual is a plus
• You are able to track multiple projects simultaneously
• You possess effective problem-solving skills, proactive and effective time management

• Previous experience in theatre or event management a plus
• Experience working with HRIS systems a plus (UKG experience a major plus)
• Knowledge of Broadway operations and union relations a plus

• 401K eligible
• PTO
