Vice President & General Manager, Concerts & Promoter Events

The Vice President & General Manager of Concerts & Promoter Events will own Paciolan's concerts business end-to-end — across P&L, market strategy, event acquisition, product direction, and industry presence — unifying activity that today spans the Arena, College Athletics, and Performing Arts communities. Above all, this leader will be the driving force behind helping Paciolan clients book more concerts and promoter events, and ensuring those events are as profitable and fan-friendly as possible once booked.

This leader will bring structure and focus to an already-sizable and growing business, building the dedicated team, operating model, and cross-community coordination required to scale it further. Concerts & Promoter Events is not a new business for Paciolan — it is long-standing, rooted historically in the Arena community, where we have deep experience powering box office and ticketing operations for venues that host these events.

In recent years, that footprint has expanded well beyond Arenas:
College Athletics Stadiums and Arenas and Performing Arts Centers are increasingly hosting concerts and promoter events of their own, and the concerts business has grown meaningfully across every community we serve. Specific to College Stadiums, we have powered over 70 concert and promoter events in those venues this past year – representing a 100% year over year increase and the largest number of College Stadium shows in the ticketing industry.

We are searching for a single, dedicated leader to unify this cross-segment opportunity — to bring coherence to strategy, product, and go-to-market efforts that today sit distributed across segments. This is a newly created role, but not a new market: the General Manager will inherit an active and growing book of business and a well-established position within the promoter ecosystem, with the mandate to organize, scale, and sharpen Paciolan's concerts strategy across the entire client community.
