Do you have a sharp eye for commercial planning, resource allocation, and operational optimisation in the live events world? We’re hiring on behalf of a fast-growing production company delivering exceptional technical production across live events, exhibitions, experiential, and virtual formats.
This is a pivotal operational/commercial role designed for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and understands the balance between people, kit, logistics, and profitability.

This role spans:
* Stock & asset management
* Capex planning & investment strategy
* Sub-hire management
* Freelance & crew forecasting
* Reporting & utilisation tracking
What You’ll Be Doing
* Monitor technical stock levels and forecast usage across AV, lighting, rigging, power, and networks
* Oversee sub-hire strategies—negotiating best value and ensuring availability
* Maintain and evolve the capital investment roadmap (working closely with SLT)
* Build and maintain a strong freelance and crew network—ensuring availability aligns with demand
* Refine and improve rental and booking systems (e.g., Current RMS, HireTrack)
* Create weekly/monthly reports on equipment utilisation, sub-hire spend, and ROI
* Collaborate with Project Managers, Directors, and Ops to keep all resource planning ahead of the curve

Our client is a bold and ambitious technical production company that partners with top agencies, designers, and stand builders to bring some of the most creative live experiences to life. Their values? Fun, Fame, and Fortune—and they’re gearing up for a year of impressive growth.
What You’ll Need to Succeed
* Background in technical production, AV rental, or events operations
* Solid experience with asset tracking software (Current RMS, HireTrack, etc.)
* Strong understanding of AV categories and production workflows
* Commercial thinking and confidence negotiating with suppliers
* Great communicator who can juggle timelines, tech, and team needs
