Our vision is to unite people through the joy of live music and believe that doing so has the power to create a better society for all of us.

The Marketing Team is responsible for the promotion and advocacy of all Bristol Beacon activities. As well as being responsible for Bristol Beacon’s brand and undertaking all day to day press and marketing needed to sell Bristol Beacon’s shows, commercial hire opportunities, and promote Bristol Beacon’s learning and engagement programmes, the Marketing team also play a key role in helping to set customer service standards, monitor and conduct audience research and market insight and advocate for Bristol Beacon in the city and beyond.

The successful candidate will bring a professional, adaptable, and proactive attitude and be part of a dynamic and innovative team, working as part of a vibrant arts organisation.

We are committed to diversity, and we welcome applications from all sections of the community, and we particularly encourage applications from disabled and ethnically diverse backgrounds as these groups are currently underrepresented within the arts and culture sectors.
