About the Organisation

The idea at the heart of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is simple: anyone with a desire to perform and a venue willing to host them is welcome. No individual or committee determines who can or cannot perform at the Fringe.

The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society was founded by artists to nurture and uphold the Fringe's values of inclusivity, experimentation and imagination. We exist to support, advise and encourage everyone who wants to participate in the Fringe, provide information and assistance to audiences, and celebrate the Fringe and what it stands for all over the world.

About the Role

We are seeking to appoint a proactive and well\-organised individual to the role of Street Events Administrator, playing an integral role supporting the project manager and street participants for the Street Events.

During the Fringe, the Street Events team manages vibrant street performance areas in the heart of the city. These spaces become the focus of the carnival atmosphere that takes over Edinburgh in August, with thousands of locals and tourists mingling to see the spectacular acts that travel from all over the world to entertain the crowds.

Reporting to the Street Events Project Manager, the Street Events Administrator is the backbone of our office operation. The first point of contact for all enquiries both before and during the Fringe, administration of our database, inbox and comms, responsible for a smooth running of the office which will ensure a smooth running of the street. This role is fast\-paced, varied and feeds into all facets of the Street Events operations.
