- Confident using Jira for task management and workflow tracking.
- Working knowledge of Microsoft Office suite.
- Exposure to web technologies—basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript understanding. (not coding level, but enough insight to be able to talk about it)
- Strong communication and client-facing skills.
- Comfortable working both remotely and on-site with occasional travel (including short notice).
- Organised, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple moving parts under pressure.
Desirable skills:
- Hands-on experience at live event sites (e.g. event builds, client-facing delivery).
- Familiarity with React, jQuery, Bootstrap, or MySQL.
- Prior experience configuring bespoke event software or digital platforms.
- Mentoring or team leadership exposure within project teams.
If you’ve ever been behind the scenes at a major sporting event or concert – configuring software, managing moving parts, and making sure everything works before the crowds arrive – you’ll get it! And if you haven’t but know you’d thrive in that kind of environment, let’s talk – apply now.
