Events and Live Interpretation Manager

Events and Live Interpretation Manager We''re looking for an experienced, imaginative producer to play a key role in our Learning and Participation Team. This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for shaping, managing and delivering a distinctive, high-profile programme of live events at the Royal Armouries in Leeds - from daily performances and combat demonstrations to the annual international Easter Joust. The Royal Armouries cares for one of the world''s oldest museum collections, displayed across three sites: our flagship museum in Leeds, the Tower of London, and Fort Nelson in Hampshire. In Leeds, our live programme is central to how visitors encounter the collection: immediate, human, and responsive. This role exists to make that encounter happen - reliably, creatively, and at scale.

This will require a balance of clear direction and collaborative development: creating the conditions in which individuals can do their best work, while maintaining consistency, pace and professional standards across a busy, year-round programme. The work is fast-moving and highly visible. Plans shift; audiences vary; ideas evolve in delivery. You will need to be comfortable making decisions in the moment, holding the line on quality while adapting to changing circumstances, and sustaining momentum ..... full job details .....
