Head of Marketing & Sales

Turner Sims is the University of Southampton’s acclaimed music venue with big ambitions to build an inclusive world through the joy of live music. Having launched our rebrand, new website and celebrated our 50th anniversary last autumn, the Head of Marketing & Sales will lead the next phase of our ambitious marketing, audience development and income generation plans.

In our 50-year history, we’re proud to have supported early careers of many great artists. We champion diverse talent and welcome adventurous audiences to discover new music, alongside old favourites. With national partners, we’re creating opportunities for artists and audiences to share the joy of live music in the Hampshire and Solent region.

Through our engagement programme, we’re actively welcoming new audiences who’ve never engaged with us before. And importantly, students and young people are playing a vibrant role in shaping the next 50 years of Turner Sims.

We are proud to be part of the University of Southampton, an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation, and contributing to the city and region’s cultural reputation. Our music programme is locally relevant and internationally acclaimed. We want that reputation to continue to flourish.

We believe equality, diversity and inclusion are fundamental to making the University of Southampton a welcoming, vibrant and successful organisation. We welcome applicants that value the diversity of our community and are willing to play their part in supporting the mission of inclusivity.
