The Role

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Ticketing Operations Manager to join the Glasgow 2026 team and lead the operational delivery of ticketing across all competition venues.

You’ll ensure a secure, inclusive, and seamless ticketing experience for every spectator by managing the integration of systems, staffing, access control, and venue operations. From strategic planning to Games-time troubleshooting, your work will ensure Glasgow 2026 delivers a world-class, accessible event for all.

This is a delivery-focused role in a fast-paced, multi-stakeholder environment – perfect for someone with strong ticketing experience, venue knowledge, and a passion for operational excellence.

Above all, you'll bring a calm, methodical, and solutions-focused approach to a complex and constantly evolving project — one where planning, precision, and people skills are just as important as technical delivery.
