Office based: 5 days onsite. Print runs, spray finishes, vinyl graphics and carpentry all moving at once, built to tight deadlines and shipped to events across Europe. The Event Production Workshop Manager who steps into this seat owns that floor, that team and that output.

  • Real ownership of an in-house production workshop
  • Varied work across festivals, experiential and large-scale European events
  • Genuine expansion opportunity as the business grows
  • 20 days holiday plus bank holidays

The Company: This is a boutique production company delivering high-volume experiential, pop-up and event builds for agencies and brands. Everything comes from one site: print, spray, vinyl and carpentry all sit in-house, which keeps the pace fast and the quality controlled. The business is in active growth, which means what gets built now shapes what the company becomes.

The Role: The Event Production Workshop Manager sits between the owners and the workshop floor, keeping production moving, teams on task and stock accounted for across every build.

  • Lead and manage the workshop team day to day
  • Coordinate production schedules to hit tight project deadlines
  • Oversee stock, inventory and packing across the workshop
  • Act as the link between workshop operations and senior leadership
  • Maintain standards across print, spray, vinyl and carpentry output

The Candidate: The right Event Production Workshop Manager has solid experience running a warehouse or workshop environment and knows what it takes to keep a team productive under pressure. You will have managed staff directly, handled stock and inventory, and kept projects moving to firm deadlines. A background in production or manufacturing is beneficial but not essential, and familiarity with print, graphics or fabrication workflows would be a bonus. What matters most is the ability to take genuine ownership, stay calm when volume peaks and bring a team with you.

If you are a strong Event Production Workshop Manager ready to step into a role with real reach, this is worth a look. Direct access to the founders, genuine authority on the workshop floor and a growing order book: that is the deal on offer with the Event Production Workshop Manager position. Interviews are being lined up now, so get your application in before the role is filled.
