About Us

Gather Round is a growing family of creative workspaces. Our beautiful spaces are specifically designed for creative industry professionals in Bristol. Built by creatives, for creatives! Our mission is to foster a positive and supportive culture, through thoughtfully designed spaces and a diverse mix of people. Together, we champion a supportive culture of openness, inclusivity and solidarity.

We take time to consider every last detail. Making sure that everything we do, we do with meaning and purpose.

About the role

This part-time position will be predominantly based at our flagship Cigar Factory venue in Southville.  Although ideally we’re looking for someone with the flexibility to work across both Gather Round locations when needed.

You’ll be tasked with a variety of responsibilities,  so we’re looking for someone proactive who can turn their hand to anything from housekeeping and front of house, to supporting event planning and social media marketing.

We’re looking for a fun, friendly, super-organised person, whose passion and drive supports our purpose and embodies our company values of trust, openness and inclusivity.

You should be creative at heart, with a keen interest in the local creative community.
