- Strong understanding of venue seating, including sections, rows, seat locations, ticket attributes, and different seating configurations.
- Ability to evaluate ticket inventory and determine comparable seating and appropriate upgrades.
- Understanding of ticket pricing and how inventory values can change as an event approaches.
- Ability to make quick, financially responsible decisions in a rapidly changing marketplace.
- Strong attention to detail, particularly when reviewing seating locations, ticket quantities, restrictions, delivery methods, and pricing.
- Ability to manage multiple time-sensitive orders and prioritize work effectively.
- Comfortable working in a high-volume, fast-paced environment where decisions can have immediate customer and financial impacts.
- Strong problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills.
- Ability to recognize situations requiring escalation and communicate them quickly to management.
- Willingness to take ownership of issues and work collaboratively across teams to reach resolution.
