8. Providing on-site support during live events
9. Operating technical equipment following training
10. Shadowing and assisting project managers on-site

THE CANDIDATE

This role is ideal for someone eager to build a career in live event production. While prior experience is not required, a basic understanding of event lighting, audio, and video systems would be beneficial. The ideal candidate will have:

1. A strong work ethic and willingness to learn
2. Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
3. The ability to manage time effectively, prioritise tasks, and multitask
4. A team-focused approach with a proactive mindset
5. Competency in standard office-based IT systems
6. A full, clean driving licence (due to insurance requirements, applicants must be 21 or over)
