THE ROLE
As the Production Director for Wake The Tiger, you will be the driving force behind the physical and creative realisation of our immersive parks.

- Expansion & Resourcing: Build out, structure, and mobilise dedicated project teams to facilitate future expansions, whether developing current sites or launching entirely new locations.
Financial & Project Oversight
