Live Systems in Edinburgh are looking to recruit 2 event technicians to add to our in-house team.

This is an ideal opportunity to work in a technically challenging role in an exciting, creative company – all while broadening your experience and enhancing your technical skill set.
The role will cover many aspects of event production, from initial design and specification through to event delivery.

The ideal candidate will be a self-starter, have a strong technical mind set, be a great communicator and demonstrate strong interpersonal and client skills.
