About You
You are a technically skilled, solutions-driven project leader who thrives in the energy of live events. You enjoy taking ownership, solving complex problems, and turning ambitious ideas into flawless real-world experiences. You balance creativity with commercial awareness and take pride in delivering high-quality results while maintaining strong client relationships.
About the Role
As a Technical Project Manager, you will be the technical driving force behind our live event projects. This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role where creativity meets precision. You won't simply manage timelines—you will help shape client ideas into fully engineered technical solutions, then lead the delivery on-site to bring those experiences to life. Working across lighting, audio, and video systems, you will ensure seamless integration of technologies across a wide range of high-profile events, upholding our commitment to creativity, passion, and technical excellence.
What You'll Be Doing
- You will take ownership of projects from initial brief through to final delivery, acting as the key technical lead throughout.
- Build strong relationships with clients through clear, confident communication (both in-person and remotely).
- Translate client briefs into technical solutions by asking the right questions and identifying core objectives.
- Collaborate with internal teams to develop creative and technically robust responses to briefs.
- Produce accurate quotations, proposals, and technical solutions aligned with client needs and budget constraints.
- Support clients in refining briefs to ensure optimal delivery outcomes.
- Lead and motivate technical teams across multiple concurrent projects.
- Create technical documentation including equipment specifications, plots, and supporting paperwork.
- Oversee on-site delivery, coordinating lighting, audio, and video departments.
- Manage logistics, budgets, and resource planning across projects.
- Adapt quickly to changing requirements while maintaining clear team alignment and delivery standards.
What We're Looking For
- Strong professional experience in live event production or technical project delivery.
- Deep expertise in one core discipline: lighting, audio, or video.
- Broad working knowledge of the other technical disciplines.
- Strong understanding of system design and on-site implementation.
- Experience producing technical drawings and documentation (AutoCAD proficiency desirable).
- Familiarity with rental management and event planning software.
- Confidence managing budgets, logistics, and commercial aspects of projects.
- Strong client-facing skills with the ability to interpret and challenge briefs constructively.
- Calm, organised approach under pressure in fast-paced live environments.
- A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle would be highly advantageous.
