Juh Titlv General Manager & Events Coordinator Company The GRV, Edinburgh
When iiiii you e.t.ut your job? July 2007
So wimt (Inn-r. your job actually involve? I deal with the day to day running of The GRV -- payroll, stock and cash control, maintenance etc. I also book all the events and entertainment for the bar and main venue. and look after promotions, marketing etc.
Hunt/Wu! mi Atspvcin’.‘ The sense of achievement having created The GRV is amazing. It was a really small group of folk that created the GRV and it's great when people come in and say they love it. The team here is also great. so it's nice to come in and hang about with your mates all day at work. We also have a huge amount of ideas up our sleeves. so the project will constantly evolve. Worst aspect would definitely be my lack of time off . . . although I'm getting better at that.
\Vltni um yuti do tmhms you unified thh. job? I studied Event Management at QMU in 2003. then worked freelance for a number of concert promotion and event companies after that. I lived in New Zealand for four years after school and have always worked in hospitality management and promotions. The GRV just combines everything together.
Wimt’h the be“ way to U"! a tub like yawn? Network! I've always found it‘s the best way to get where you want to be. It also gives you a good excuse to go to lots of parties
Where (in ynu nee yum malt in ten yearn time? Same thing I do every day pinky trying to take over the world
and finally
What In the funhient thing alum! The (im'? It's too hard to list just one thing. so I'll reel off a few things that I think are awesome: the 48 digital mixing desk; ProTools system which means we can record everything that happens in the main venue: Avalanche Records shop in the bar. having an in-house film production company; having a 36 track tac scorpion as decoration! The amount going on under one roof is incredible -- film. art, music. I also think the fact that anyone can get involved is great -- there are so many places in Edinburgh that you walk into and immediately feel like you have to act a certain way. The GRV allows you to express yourself.
