Reporting to: Senior Management

Location: Remote and flexible. Work from where you want, when you want.

About the role
Joining our existing team of Livestream Engineers to increase our capacity, this person will be responsible for the live production of our clients’ and our own virtual events. After receiving the final event briefing from our Account Managers and clients you will bring our events to life, supported by our team. Following the event programme, you will use a simple point-and-click interface (for which you’ll receive full training) to activate various speakers, branding, messaging and media content. You’ll co-ordinate our virtual backstage area, communicating and supporting our speakers and staff.

Your role includes:

  • Communicating with speakers and supporting them to feel comfortable and confident.
  • Use of various online tools, including our own and third-party software such as Restream.io, Streamyard, OBS, Vimeo, YouTube and more (experience ideal but not essential)
  • Ensuring live and pre-recorded video transitions are smooth and professional
  • Virtual ‘dress rehearsals’ and demonstrations with clients and speakers with support from Account Managers.
  • Following event programme/run-sheet and keeping events on-time and as agreed. 
  • Debriefing post-event to the Account Managers
  • Pre- and post-event production support with basic video editing and administration.


While we do everything in our power to ensure a smooth event, things can go wrong. You will be the calming presence backstage that reacts quickly and follows our own emergency procedures to minimise downtime.
