About Us

Curate Group is a diverse collective of experience-led businesses, rooted in pioneering hospitality and known for delivering industry-applauded events for some of the world’s most exciting brands.

Lumos produces immersive live music events staged by candlelight in extraordinary spaces. Blending classical and contemporary performances with carefully curated venues, Lumos transforms familiar music into intimate, atmospheric experiences, inviting audiences to slow down, connect and experience music and the arts in a new way.

As Lumos continues to expand internationally, we are investing in senior regional leadership to scale our operations, protect our brand and deliver consistently exceptional experiences across new markets.

The Head of Regional Event Operations owns the day-to-day performance of their assigned hub, overseeing bookings, marketing, operations, finance, sales and customer experience to ensure every show is profitable, well‑run and continuously improving. The role is focused on scaling and growing the region.

You are the senior local decision-maker, accountable for performance, team alignment and execution and responsible for planning, people management and performance tracking to consistently deliver Lumos standards.

Working closely with HQ’s support, you will implement regional strategy and lead teams on the ground to deliver a seamless, five‑star experience at every Lumos show. The role starts hands‑on and quickly evolves into leading a growing regional team as the market scales, while retaining end‑to‑end ownership of regional operations.
