• Know what events/activities are using The Stag during your shift, what facilities are required and what staff and volunteers are expected and when.
• Ensure that all staff and volunteers (including the Events Manager and the Front of House Volunteers Manager appointed for specific events) working during your shift are greeted on arrival, understand their duties and that the facilities and stock necessary for the performance of those duties are readily available and functioning.

• Liaise with hirers or customers over any queries or complaints and resolve issues on the spot if it is practical to do so.
• Make arrangements to receive proceeds of sales from activities other than the Box Office and Kiosk and account accurately for them, either paying them into the bank night safe or storing them securely in one of the designated safes on The Stag’s premises.
• Record key events, concerns, issues, etc in the Duty Managers' Book and check back later to ensure that they have been resolved satisfactorily. Ensure effective handover of ongoing issues/activities to the next Duty Manager coming on shift.
