Meet The Team

We’re committed to training and developing our staff, preparing them for their next step in whichever direction that might be. Here’s the proof.

Connor Harper - Senior Venue Manager

Connor started his career with HQ Theatres in 2012 as a Hospitality Assistant at the Beck Theatre, Hayes, working on a casual basis during his studies. In 2018, he applied for the role of Assistant Hospitality Manager where he got his first taste at managing teams, and a department.

In December 2020, G Live put out a plea to it’s sister venues for some help over the busy Christmas period, in a time of lots of staffing changes. Connor made the journey from the mean streets of West London to help out over Christmas, when a maternity cover opportunity came up, leading to him covering as Events Manager in the new year. Connor managed to work in this role for all of 2 months before the government lockdown struck, and he was summoned to remain in West London for 16 months.

Over lockdown, G Live significantly changed it’s internal Front of House and Hospitality structure, leading to the creation of a new role, Senior Venue Manager. Connor and his team now lead the FOH operation, Hospitality Events, Stage Door team, and our most valued Volunteers.
