Location 35 St Andrew Square, Edinburgh
Closing date for applications Friday 1 May 2026 at 5pm

We’re looking for an experienced Head of Facilities and Operations to join the Dunard Centre team. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with senior experience in a live performance venue to join us during our capital phase and play a key role in establishing the operations function for this once-in-a-century concert hall, before going on to lead the smooth running of the venue once open.

Working alongside the Project Director during the capital phase, the Head of Facilities and Operations will bring specialist knowledge of cultural venues and their operational requirements, enabling intelligent decision-making and a smooth transition from construction to opening. Once open, you will lead the day-to-day operations of this busy community and performance space, helping to ensure the Dunard Centre fulfils its ambitions to become a world-class venue that is welcoming and accessible to all.

The ideal candidate will have experience of working on a capital project, as well as operational experience of running a cultural venue, as this role will necessarily change and adapt as the capital project nears completion.
