Contract Terms: Permanent 37.5 hours per week
Position Details: Thisjobadvertisementis for an existing immediate vacancy.
THE TEAM
Client Website Services (CWS) supports clients across the Ticketmaster Clubs and Universe segments delivering and maintaining the websites that power event discovery and ticket sales. Our clients range from independent venues to established operators primarily across North America and Europe.
We are a distributed team working across product development and client delivery responsible for a managed WordPress platform hosted on WP Engine. This includes maintaining a shared set of website templates an internally built event integration plugin and a portfolio of live client sites.
CWS operates within the broader Ticketmaster and Live Nation ecosystem partnering closely with teams across Ticketweb and Universe platforms. We combine the focus and ownership of a smaller team with the scale and infrastructure of a global organization.
Were a team that brings together diverse backgrounds and perspectives and we believe that makes us better at what we do for our clients and for each other.
THE JOB
CWS operates across two modes: build (new sites and major changes) and support (ongoing updates fixes and technical help). Both are client-facing and this role sits at the center of that experience.
You will own the client journey end-to-end from the moment a new website request comes in through scoping and delivery to launch and ongoing support. Youll manage and prioritize a steady flow of change requests ensuring work moves quickly clearly and with the right level of quality.
This role requires a client-first operator. You are accountable for the client experience not just communication but outcomes. You move work forward remove ambiguity and ensure clients feel supported even when navigating constraints or issues.
If youve worked in a digital agency environment this will feel familiar: managing builds shaping briefs and navigating scope conversations. The difference here is continuity youre not handing work off after launch. You stay connected to your clients build long-term relationships and are accountable for outcomes over time.
To be effective youll need to understand the platform well enough to scope work accurately partner closely with the development team to drive delivery and represent CWS with confidence especially when resolving issues or working through constraints with clients..
