About the role

This is a production management role that requires a strong understanding of the event industry particularly in a logistics and operations capacity.

The role is to support the team through coordinating elements such as transport, crewing, equipment, supplier management and general logistical problem solving.

It can be a physical role with the occasional need to load/unload vehicles.

Specific project based elements include developing site plans, schedules, permits, site mgmt and technical elements. An understanding of technical production such as AV, lighting and power would be advantageous but not essential.
