KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

The Technical Lead is primarily responsible for technical delivery events for our Production Team here at Encore, sometimes operating completely independently and sometimes leading a small team of Technicians in the delivery of event.
The role and responsibilities of a Technical Lead will vary from event to event and can be interchangeable, depending
on the experience, skills and complexity of an event, however, what differentiates a technical lead from that of a
technician is primarily their knowledge and experience within a specific area and the ability to work independently
to complete a project.
The Technical Lead will report and work alongside Technical Project Managers on more complex events, on an event by event basis.This role includes moderate levels of travel, as attendance onsite (at venues and locations) to deliver services, is an
necessity.

  high standard.

• Lead specific projects (or aspects of projects) from initial brief to the final delivery.

• Mentor and communicate relevant Team members on event execution and best practices to help improve
