Senior Technical Project Manager – Live Events (Lighting-Focused)

Location: Borehamwood (≈25 mins from Central London)
Salary: £55,000 – £65,000 (DOE)
Hours: Flexible – aligned with live project schedules
Reporting to: Head of Projects

The Role

You’re not just managing projects — you’re owning the technical delivery.

We’re looking for a Senior Technical Project Manager who has come up through live events and is still comfortable being hands-on when it matters. This role is ideal for someone with a strong lighting background who can confidently pull together audio, video, and lighting into one cohesive delivery.

You’ll take the lead on high-profile, technically complex live events, acting as the go-to technical authority from initial brief through to show call.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Owning projects end-to-end — from concept and design through to live delivery
  • Acting as the senior technical lead onsite, making real-time decisions under pressure
  • Designing full technical solutions — specifying exact kit (brands/models) across lighting, audio, and video
  • Leading and coordinating multi-disciplinary crews and departments
  • Translating creative ideas into practical, deliverable technical plans
  • Managing budgets, logistics, schedules, and client expectations
  • Troubleshooting issues live — without needing to escalate to siloed specialists
  • Mentoring junior team members and raising technical standards across projects

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience (6+ years) delivering live events in a technical, client-facing role
  • A strong lighting background with solid working knowledge of audio and video systems
  • Someone who is hands-on, credible, and respected onsite — not just desk-based
  • Experience leading crews and running complex shows under pressure
  • Confident specifying and building full technical solutions from scratch
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD and technical documentation
  • Strong commercial awareness — able to quote, budget, and manage resources effectively
  • A natural problem-solver who thrives in fast-paced live environments
  • Full UK driving licence (preferred)

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on high-end, technically ambitious live events
  • Join a team where technical expertise is valued, not siloed
  • Real ownership — you won’t be boxed into one discipline
  • A culture that blends creative ambition with technical excellence

What’s On Offer

  • £55,000 – £65,000 salary (DOE)
  • 30 days holiday (including bank holidays)
  • Private healthcare & dental cover
  • Enhanced sick pay
  • Pension + long-service rewards
  • Ongoing training and development
  • Supportive, collaborative team delivering standout projects

The Bottom Line

If you’re a technically strong live events professional who still enjoys being close to the kit, leading from the front, and solving real-world problems onsite, this is a role where you can step up and take full ownership.
