Job description

Are you a Technical Account Manager looking to work on some of the UK’s most exciting live events?

We’re looking for an experienced Technical Account Manager to join our client who are going through an exciting period of growth and deliver technically flawless productions across the UK. If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and love turning complex technical plans into seamless client solutions, this role is for you.

Benefits include:

  • Exciting national projects
  • Career progression opportunities
  • Supportive, collaborative team culture

THE COMPANY

Join a multi award-winning event production and entertainment company that creates extraordinary experiences for leading brands across corporate, exhibition, and activation sectors. Renowned for their professionalism, creativity, and supportive culture, this is a place where every Technical Account Manager can thrive and develop.

THE ROLE

As Technical Account Manager, you’ll own the full technical lifecycle of live events — from taking client enquiries and shaping proposals, to technical planning and on‑site delivery. A key part of the role is using your technical expertise to support sales conversations, ensuring every client receives solutions that are both creatively impressive and technically robust.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Leading technical planning and execution for live events
  • Acting as the main technical contact for clients, venues, and suppliers
  • Taking and qualifying client enquiries, advising on technical feasibility and creative approaches
  • Applying technical knowledge when building proposals, ensuring solutions meet client needs and budgets
  • Working closely with internal teams to convert enquiries, contributing to the wider sales pipeline and maintaining ongoing client accounts
  • Creating technical drawings and layouts using CAD/Vectorworks (or similar)
  • Ensuring compliance with health & safety standards
  • Mentoring junior team members and freelancers

THE CANDIDATE

As Technical Account Manager, you’ll bring strong experience in technical production and a solid understanding of live event delivery. You’ll combine excellent organisational skills with confident communication, enabling you to translate complex technical information into clear, client-friendly proposals, successfully converting new business for the company. You’ll have experience creating proposals, managing budgets, enjoy working collaboratively, and be comfortable in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.
