  • Manage client requests and changes to production requirements, ensuring you keep production execution plans and supporting documentation up to date for safe and controlled delivery.
  • Actively follow all approval procedures.
  • Ensure you follow Live Events quality and sustainability procedures on each project and maintain appropriate records.
  • Manage all equipment and event accessories.
  • Provide hands-on production management support to virtual/live projects and pitches.
  • Maintain up-to-date technical knowledge and expertise around delivery techniques and equipment.

  • A minimum of 3 years' experience in a Production Management role within a live events or experiential agency, managing complex productions from initial brief through to delivery.
  • A keen understanding of the Events industry and the media/ facilities/ technology available.
  • Proven experience managing complex productions with multiple vendors and large crews.
  • Deep knowledge of event production workflows, tech specs, and health & safety regulations.
  • A good working knowledge of Virtual meeting platforms/technologies.
  • Experience managing technical production budgets, including supplier costs and cost control.
  • Experience managing technical suppliers, freelancers and production crews.
  • Good customer service ethic and high expectations of quality.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
