About the Role
THE·TEAM is a global leader in representation and marketing services, specializing in live event production, branding, signage, custom fabrication, and experiential operations across sports, music, entertainment, and culture. As a Production and Operations Executive within LIVE·TEAM's Brand Experience Division, you will split your time between supporting the delivery of brand experiences—including bespoke builds, fabrication, logistics, operations, crew coordination and onsite delivery—and managing local retail store operations across the UK.

This role requires a proactive problem-solver who thrives on operational detail and enjoys hands-on onsite delivery. You will liaise with key suppliers and in-house teams, manage schedules, budgets, and crew coordination, and ensure smooth execution of live events. Your work will involve attending pre-production meetings, site visits, installs, de-rigs, and managing last-minute changes calmly during live delivery.

Key responsibilities include supporting fabrication, logistics and print teams, supplier sourcing, maintaining project trackers and deadlines, preparing crew briefs and call sheets, coordinating travel and accommodation for crew and suppliers, managing inventory and equipment returns, raising purchase orders, tracking budgets, and assisting with event compliance documentation. You will also provide regular event progress updates to regional teams and contribute to client presentations and responses.

This role offers the opportunity to work with iconic brands and properties, delivering unforgettable live experiences shaped by the unifying power of sports, music, and entertainment.
