Position Summary:

At Magic Mike Live, the guest experience starts long before showtime -and doesn't end at the Encore. We are looking for a highly visible, guest-obsessed operator who blends the instincts of a luxury hospitality leader with the pace and unpredictability of a nightlife-meets-theatre environment.

Equal parts host, strategist, problem-solver and experience architect, the Director, Hospitality and Guest Experience is the pulse of the building on show nights ensuring every interaction - from bachelorette squads to VIPs - feels intentional, personal, and memorable.

Key Responsibilities:

Operational Awareness & Venue Partnership
  • Review daily sales and audience trends to anticipate house dynamics, adjusting staffing and priorities, as needed
  • Partner with venue and hotel teams on guest or staff related incidents, ensuring issues are handled quickly and professionally
  • Keep reporting clean, clear, and actionable

Leadership & Cross-Functional Alignment
  • Keep real-time communication flowing between FOH, Stage Management, Security, Bar, Box Office, and other partners
  • Brief teams nightly to ensure everyone is clear, prepared and aligned
  • Serve as the central point of contact for real-time updates and guest-impacting issues
  • Calm under pressure, quick on your feet, and comfortable making decisions in the moment with poise

Guest Experience & Flow
  • Work with the local and global teams to continuously shape and refine the end-to-end journey: arrival, seating, service, show interaction, and exit
  • Partner with Marketing, PR, and VIP teams to execute special requests and elevated experiences including purchased packages and surprise & delight moments
  • Handle guest escalations with confidence and empathy-knowing when to solve quietly and when to step in personally
  • Spot guest issues, friction and/or pain points early and before it becomes a guest issue

Qualifications:
  • 7-10 years of leadership in an immersive entertainment environment, nightlife or interactive show setting
  • Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
  • Ability to stand and move throughout the venue for extended periods (3-4+ hours)
  • Ability to lift 20-30 pounds, as needed
  • Comfortable working in a high-energy, nightclub style environment (flashing lights, loud music, noise and partial nudity, etc)
  • Ability to turn challenges into moments that guests remember for all the right reasons
