We are seeking a seasoned Touring Administrator to take ownership of touring operations, negotiations, and logistics at the highest level. This is not a task-based coordinator role — it is a strategic leadership position responsible for ensuring tours run profitably, efficiently, and without friction.
This individual will operate as the central architect of touring execution, allowing the artist to focus solely on performance while the business and operational side runs seamlessly.

• Strong command presence with exceptional written and verbal communication skills
• Strategic relationship builder with deep promoter and venue networks
• Financially fluent with experience managing touring P&L, budgets, revenue splits, and contract structures
• Highly organized and detail-oriented with the ability to manage multiple concurrent tour elements
• Calm and decisive under pressure, capable of making executive-level decisions mid-tour
• Strong leadership presence with the ability to command authority while maintaining professionalism
• Deep understanding of venue booking strategy, talent agency dynamics, and global touring best practices

Responsibilities

• Architect and execute comprehensive touring strategies to maximize ticket sales, profitability, and operational efficiency
• Lead all venue, promoter, vendor, and subcontractor negotiations, securing favorable financial and contractual terms
• Build and cultivate strategic relationships with promoters, booking agents, venue owners, production vendors, and industry stakeholders
• Oversee tour logistics including travel, accommodations, routing, transportation, security, and regulatory compliance
• Develop and manage tour budgets, monitor P&L performance, and ensure strong financial controls
• Supervise sound, lighting, production, ticketing, and marketing partners to ensure best-in-class live event execution
• Lead and manage touring teams, maintaining strong communication across calls, written correspondence, and in-person meetings
• Proactively anticipate challenges, implement contingency plans, and manage issues in real time
• Handle sensitive negotiations, contracts, and financial information with discretion and professionalism
