The Role: Scenic Project Manager

Are you a champion of the physical space who thrives on the ‘big reveal’? As a Scenic Project Manager, you’ll be the bridge between a conceptual sketch and a breathtaking physical reality. We aren't just looking for a coordinator; we need a structural visionary. You will take the client’s initial spark, engineer the solution, and lead the build on-site to ensure every finish is flawless. At the heart of our most prestigious events, you’ll be the one transforming environments, ensuring our values of creativity, passion, and excellence are visible in every joint and surface.

You will be a confident communicator, comfortable dealing with a wide range of clients to understand what makes them tick, and what their objectives are for each project. You’ll embrace every brief with both a creative and commercial eye to ensure we deliver ‘wow’ moments whilst maintaining a healthy financial position.

You will have a deep level of expertise in scenic construction, and have proficiency in AutoCAD or a similar package to create technical construction drawings that serve as the blueprint for success. You should be confident in the specification and application of a range of construction materials and finishes, be comfortable in creating project paperwork and have the ability to handle budgets, manage logistics and produce accurate quotes that answer our client’s needs. On site, you’ll supervise the venue transformation, managing internal teams and external suppliers to ensure a seamless delivery that exceeds client expectations. Whilst not essential, a full driving licence and a car would be highly beneficial.

If you are an enthusiastic scenic leader looking for a role where you can truly own your projects and work with a team that cares, we want to hear from you.
