Concert Producer
Skills
About This Role
Overview
- The Concert Producer owns end-to-end execution of TODA's concert and event programme.
- You take a confirmed artistic concept (defined by our Programme Owner) and turn it into a delivered show — on time, on budget, and audience-ready.
- You report to the Managing Director and work daily with our Programme Owner, Marketing, Finance, and Box Office.
- This is a hands-on execution role.
- You will not own creative concept — you will own that everything around the concept lands.
- If it ships late, you own it.
- If the marketing brief misses lead time, you own it.
- If the artist materials don't arrive, you find a way.
- What you will own
- Artist coordination — contracts (with Legal), riders, materials, rehearsal logistics. Chase materials until they arrive.
- Production scheduling — sound, light, projection, stage. Run technical checks. Manage external vendors and freelancers.
- Marketing brief discipline — provide complete launch package (visuals, copy, ticketing) to Marketing 12-14 days before show date. Without exception.
- Show-day operations — stage management, technical run-through, contingency planning, on-site presence.
- Per-show P&L — revenue tracking, marketing budget control, production cost reconciliation. Report against forecast weekly.
- Post-show review — actuals vs plan, lessons captured, marketing planning table updated.
- Status reporting — weekly written update covering each show in pipeline: stage, blockers, asks.
- What we need
- 3-5 years of event or concert production experience (UAE or comparable market preferred).
- Demonstrable track record of running multi-genre live shows — classical, contemporary, family, or cultural.
- Comfortable with budget responsibility per show
- Strong stakeholder management — artists, vendors, internal teams. You can push without breaking relationships.
- Fluent English. Russian and/or Arabic an advantage.
- Available for evening and weekend shows. UAE residency or ability to relocate immediately.
- Operational discipline — you finish what you start, on the date you promised.
- Nice to have
- Network of artists, performers, technical vendors in the UAE.
- Experience with immersive or projection-based event formats.
- Previous work at a cultural venue, concert hall, or arts production house.
