Customer Service Host - Ticketing
Part of the Ticketing and Sales team, your line manager is the Ticketing and Sales Manager.
The Customer Service Host will deliver an enhanced level of customer service during counter opening times. They will provide information about the production, the theatre, and the local vicinity while optimising sales and acting as the sole point of contact for any Ticketing queries. The member of staff will always be working with a more senior manager on site within the venue (e.g., Theatre Manager), who can be called on should there be a need to escalate any issues encountered during the incoming that the member of staff is unable to deal with singlehandedly.
The enhanced level of customer service provided will include (for example and not limited to) personally arranging bookings for post-show activities or local attractions such as restaurant reservations, hotel bookings, taxi services and any other bespoke requests. The Customer Service Host will have excellent knowledge of any corporate partnerships the theatre has cultivated with local businesses and be able to confidently offer recommendations and follow up with contact information or arrange bookings if desired by the customer.
The Customer Service Host will have a keen focus on optimising the opportunity of on-the-night sales, and by liaising with the
Customer Experience department, offer support for packages or experiential bookings that have been made in advance. The Customer Service Host is responsible for the Ticketing operations for the performance, proactively handling enquiries and problem solving with a high level of efficiency and accuracy and processing an anticipated decreasing number of on-the-night, in-person ticket sales.
The Customer Service Host will have a collaborative approach to their work, ensuring smooth communication with all theatre departments, visiting companies and producers. They must exemplify the best of the ‘Ambassador’ in the ATG Entertainment brand by being pleasant and collaborative in their approach to their day to-day work, liaising and communicating effectively with anybody and everybody that they come across.
Please note, your role may involve working with children or vulnerable people.
