The Role
This is a senior, technically-led Project Manager role within Delta Live's Projects Team. The primary focus of the role is technical delivery, ensuring complex live events are designed, planned, and executed to the highest standards across Delta Live's accredited venues and wider project portfolio.

This role is suited to an experienced technical professional who has progressed into project leadership and remains comfortable being close to the technical detail, particularly in audio and AV-led environments.
