Part-Time Check In / Box office / Ticket office / Host
PLEASE NOTE: Ages 18+ only. Must be available to work weekends and evenings.
Established in 1994, our award-winning venues have been hosting events for over 30 years, including comedy, music, drag, podcasts, talks/Q&As & spoken word. Described by The Guardian as “enormously well-regarded”, we pride ourselves on a commitment to excellence & innovation in live events.
We are committed to diversity and inclusion, and are keen to attract people of different backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. We particularly encourage applications from historically underrepresented communities for all roles. Just like our venues are designed for everyone, so is our workplace, and we work hard to create an inclusive culture for everyone.
The Glee Club Cardiff is located in Mermaid Quay, in Cardiff Bay. We have a 450 seat auditorium, where we hold our live stand up comedy shows every Thursday, Friday & Saturday evening. We also host touring comedy shows and live music, drag & spoken word during the week.
