    Assistant Studio Manager — Evenings & Weekends Splatter Room Studio | Archway, North London We're looking for a confident, experienced assistant manager to join the team at Splatter Room Studio - a paint splatter art experience venue based in Islington Studios, Archway. We're a young, creative business with kindness at our core, and we're growing fast. The Role This is a hands-on assistant management role, but at weekends you'll be the most senior person in the studio - responsible for the day, the team and the guest experience from open to close. Working within the framework set by the studio founder, you'll prepare the studio for the day's bookings, manage a team of 1–4 runners, and lead every session with confidence and warmth. On a busy weekend you could have up to 80 people through the doors, from young children to large groups — so we need someone experienced, responsible and unflappable. This isn't a role for someone who needs constant direction. You'll be trusted to hold the studio, support your team and make good decisions on your feet. What You'll Be Doing • Taking responsibility for the studio on weekend days from prep through to close, • Briefing and managing a small team of junior runners, • Running paint splatter sessions and birthday parties for groups of all ages, • Delivering short, engaging demonstrations to guests, • Being the face of the business — warm, confident and professional, • Making sure every guest leaves happy, looked after and proud of what they've created, • Keeping the day running on time and the studio looking its best, • Supporting weekday evening sessions alongside the founder and senior team Hours The studio is open 10am–8pm on Saturdays and 10am–6pm on Sundays, with some prep time either side. Your hours will vary depending on the day's bookings. To start you'll work every weekend, moving to every other weekend as the team grows, with shorter half days on alternate weekends. Some weekday evenings will also be available. Over the summer there may be additional hours supporting our summer camps. We're a start-up and we're still finding our rhythm - we need someone who's comfortable with a degree of flexibility as we grow and settle into our schedule. What We're Looking For • Solid experience in events, hospitality or experiences - you know how to run a busy day and keep everything on track, • Confident managing groups of the public including children and families, • Experienced leading junior staff and getting the best out of a young team, • Responsible and trustworthy - someone we can rely on to hold the studio solo at weekends, • A natural communicator who can present to a room and put people at ease, • Calm under pressure - weekends can be high turnover and intense, and we need someone who doesn't flap, • Personality, warmth and a genuine love of creative experiences, • Flexible and adaptable - we're a new business and things move fast, • An enhanced DBS check is desirable but not essential - we can support the application process for the right candidate What We Offer • Genuine responsibility and autonomy from day one, • A fun, creative place to work with a brilliant team, • A supportive culture where junior staff are nurtured and developed, • The chance to grow with an exciting new business from the ground up, • Additional summer hours available for the right person, • Hourly rate is £15 - £18 per/hour depending on experience About Splatter Room Studio We're a paint splatter art experience venue where people come to get messy, get creative and have the time of their lives. From kids' birthday parties to hen dos, corporate team builds to date nights - we run it all. We're based in the creative community of Islington Studios in Archway and we're just getting started. If you've got the experience, the personality and the confidence to hold the fort and help us build something brilliant - we'd love to hear from you.
