Technical Project Manager

Hybrid, 2-3 days in the office, London

£41,000 - £46,186 DOE

Employee ownership, paid overtime rates and hybrid flexibility make this Technical Project Manager role genuinely worth a look.

The business delivers technical production across a broad calendar of UK events, and they need someone ready to own the full production journey.

- Employee ownership stake and profit share, including the first £3,500 tax-free each year

- Paid overtime at 1.25x weekday and 1.5x weekend and bank holiday rates, or TOIL

- Hybrid working within a 7am to 7pm window, with family commitments actively accommodated

- Healthcare plan rising from Medicash Level 2 on probation to Level 4 after three years

- 30 days annual leave, with additional leave accruing with service

The Company

A mid-size, employee-owned technical production supplier working across corporate events, conferences, award ceremonies and private work. Accreditations span more than 50 venues, with the majority of revenue built on long-term relationships at the top end of the London market. Technical, design and production specialists all sit under one roof, and the Technical Project Manager sits at the heart of that operation. The culture is laid-back and sociable, and the retention figures reflect it.

The Role

As Technical Project Manager you will take full ownership of events end to end, across a varied calendar of UK events.

- Producing RAMS and health and safety documentation to IOSH and HSE standards

- Creating floor plans and interpreting technical drawings for each project

- Building and managing production schedules across concurrent events management projects

- Attending site visits and pre-production meetings across London venue work

- Delivering events on site from tier-1 through to complex tier-3 productions

- Coordinating with internal technical teams, suppliers and venue contacts throughout delivery

The Candidate

This Technical Project Manager role will suit someone with a solid background in technical event production or events management, and strong health and safety knowledge is essential.

- Confident producing RAMS and health and safety plans to IOSH and HSE standards

- Able to create floor plans and read technical drawings

- Proven at managing production schedules across multiple concurrent projects

- Background in technical production or events management delivery

- Experienced in site visits, pre-production meetings and hands-on site delivery

Experience in theatre, live events or tiered event complexity is beneficial but not essential, as is familiarity with equipment logistics, supplier management or technical design. What matters most is that you are organised, safety-conscious and ready to take real ownership.

In return you get an employee ownership stake, genuine hybrid flexibility, strong earning upside through paid overtime and profit share, and a Technical Project Manager role delivering work across some of the most respected venues in the UK.
