  • Create and present concept decks and event plans for internal and external stakeholders, effectively communicating creative direction and production strategy for private events, premieres, and themed activations.
  • Collaborate with technical teams to integrate and QC content into the venue, ensuring exceptional audio, visuals, lighting, FX, and immersive elements.
  • Provide hands-on support during client walk-throughs, production tests, and live event execution, offering feedback and documentation to maintain production quality and consistency.
  • Program lighting and atmospheric FX to enhance the visual experience of private and public events, supporting both creative vision and technical precision.
  • Work alongside the Sr. Entertainment Event Production Manager to plan and produce all types of events, from creative development through on-site execution.
  • Source, operate, and maintain production equipment (e.g., hazers, fog machines, snow machines) to support diverse event types-from private rentals to nightlife and premieres.
  • Oversee artist hospitality and logistics, managing rider requirements, scheduling, and backstage support to ensure a polished, professional experience for talent and guests alike.

Experience
  • Excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills, with ability to keep teams informed in a dynamic environment.
  • Proven ability to juggle multiple projects, prioritize tasks, and adapt to changing demands in a fast-paced and collaborative environment.
  • An understanding of entertainment, immersive storytelling, immersive technology, and digital and social media landscapes.
  • Experience with general lighting design and programming; knowledge of Mosaic is a plus.
  • Proficiency in creating and managing run of shows
