LAYIQ - LN Concerts, Sr. Director of Operations – VIP Nation at Live Nation Entertainment

Operational Efficiency
Own the day-to-day operating cadence of VIP Nation — planning calendars, reporting rhythms, decision rights, and escalation paths — and establish and monitor, with the SVP, the key performance indicators covering operational efficiency, fulfillment accuracy, cost, fan satisfaction, and organizational health.
Maintain a disciplined communication rhythm with the SVP, including regular operating reviews, clear escalation of risks and issues, and visibility into the decisions being made across the department.
Conduct a structured assessment of the current state of the business — what exists, what is working, what is duplicative, and what is at risk — and present a prioritized roadmap to the SVP and executive leadership.
Own the supply chain and logistics strategy for VIP programs — sourcing, production, inventory, freight, warehousing, and delivery to venue — setting the direction and standards, strengthening vendor agreements and service-level expectations, while leading and coordinating the existing team and partners who execute it.
Institute service-level standards and quality controls across every VIP program so on-site execution matches what was sold to the fan, the artist, and the tour, and build a post-show and post-tour review process that converts lessons learned into documented standards.
Document the standard operating procedures, templates, and process maps required for the business to be audited, handed off, and replicated as it grows.
Leadership
Lead the functional teams responsible for program operations, fulfillment, logistics, vendor management, and business systems in coordination with the SVP.
Establish clear roles, workload planning, and accountability across the department, and build manager capability so the business is not dependent on a small number of individuals.
Assess talent across the division, identify capability gaps, and lead recruitment, development, and succession planning to build a durable leadership bench.
Partner with Human Resources, Legal, Finance, and Risk to ensure the division operates cleanly within Live Nation policy and controls, including contracting, approvals, travel, and safety.
Technology
Lead the modernization of the division's infrastructure, replacing manual, spreadsheet-dependent processes with integrated systems for order management, inventory, fulfillment, CRM, and reporting.
Create a single source of truth for VIP Nation data and reporting that gives leadership real-time visibility into sales, fulfillment accuracy, cost, and fan satisfaction — built to work with the platforms, data infrastructure, and tools already in place at Live Nation rather than standing up parallel systems alongside them.
