Head of Artist Partnerships, US

Us: Born out of a passion for fairness and incredible experiences, Tixel is changing the game. We’re a rapidly growing ticket marketplace transforming live entertainment and making a real impact by giving fans fearless flexibility to discover and access events they love. Our mission? To become the world’s most trusted live event marketplace.

You: You live and breathe live music and couldn’t imagine working in any other industry.. You get how artists and their teams think, what matters to fans, and how to bridge the two. You’re excited by the chance to build something new, to shape how artists connect with their audiences, and to turn that passion into partnerships that make the industry better.

Mission

Tixel’s already proving what a fan-first model looks like. Early partnerships with artists like Gorillaz, Tame Impala and Faye Webster, have shown huge demand for a better secondary ticketing experience. We’re ready to harness that demand in the US, working directly with artists and their teams to protect fans, drive sales, and unlock data no one else can.

The Gig

• Develop a pipeline of artist partnership opportunities for Tixel to be the official fan exchange and waitlist partner before the tour goes on sale.
• Sign partnerships with touring artists at or above large theatre capacity.
• Build the go-to-market playbook, including commercial model, product offering, and positioning that helps unlock these partnerships at scale.
• Ensure that partnerships are delivered smoothly by coordinating with internal and external teams.
• Represent Tixel to the industry: whether it be attending conferences, curating events, speaking opportunities or other networking opportunities.
