General Manager, Intuit Dome and Kia Forum

Halo Sports & Entertainment (HSE), the parent company of the LA Clippers, Intuit Dome and Kia Forum, is searching for a General Manager who is a builder, someone who sees complexity as an opportunity, thrives in fast-paced, high-energy environments, and knows how to align people and systems behind a shared vision.  This is a rare chance to step into a senior executive role with genuine scope: two major venues, Intuit Dome and KIA Forum, an 800+ person organization, and a portfolio of events that reach hundreds of thousands of fans each year.  Reporting directly to our CEO, serving as the operational backbone of the company, the GM will own day-to-day performance of both venues, lead a talented team of department heads, and be a key driver of the company’s next chapter of growth. 

As the GM you will provide strategic and day-to-day leadership across both venues, ensuring every event — from an NBA playoff game to a sold-out concert — is executed at the highest standard. You will manage a team of department heads spanning Booking & Live Entertainment, Facilities & Operations, Production, Security & Fan Experience, and key contracted service partners. 

We are looking for a leader who can zoom out to shape strategy and zoom in to drive execution — someone who brings operational rigor without sacrificing the energy and creativity that live entertainment demands. 

This is a full-time role based in Inglewood, CA and is eligible for our competitive benefit offering including medical, dental, vision, 401(k) plan with company contribution, Well-Being Allowance, and more. The scope of this position encompasses a 24 hour, 7 day a week operation with the transition of numerous daily events. Due to the nature of this industry, the candidate must be available to work a flexible schedule including weeknights, weekends, and holidays to cover high profile concerts and NBA games.

• Oversee all day-to-day operations across both venues, ensuring seamless execution of every event type — NBA games, concerts, private events, and beyond. 

• Establish and continuously improve operational standards, protocols, and workflows that drive consistency, safety, and excellence across the portfolio. 

• Identify and implement operational efficiencies, eliminating waste and redundancy while maintaining or elevating the fan and employee experience. 

• Lead capital maintenance planning and manage minor renovation projects, ensuring both venues remain in premier condition. 

• Oversee contracted service partners, including event-day security, concert merchandise, and cleaning services — managing performance, compliance, and relationship quality.

• Lead, develop, and inspire a team of department heads across Booking & Live Entertainment, Facilities & Operations, Production, Food & Beverage, Security & Fan Experience. 

• Build a unified, high-performance culture that bridges the distinct operational identities of the basketball arena and the concert venue. 

• Champion talent development, succession planning, and a people-first approach to managing a 800+ person workforce.

Revenue Growth & Commercial Strategy 

• Partner with the CEO and commercial leadership to identify and capture revenue opportunities across both venues. 

• Partner closely with the AGM, Booking & Live Entertainment to align event programming strategy with operational capacity, financial targets, and the overall direction of the company — ensuring potential events can be executed at the highest level and that programming decisions reflect the organization’s growth ambitions across both venues.

• Develop and manage operating budgets for both venues, with accountability for hitting financial targets and reducing unnecessary expenditure. 

• Provide data-informed recommendations to leadership on pricing, programming, capacity, and operational investment.
