Event Crew Supervisor

Event Crew Supervisor

About the Role

Are you an experienced event professional who thrives in the thick of the action? We are seeking a dynamic, hands-on Event Crew Supervisor to lead and supervise our event crew through the end-to-end delivery of premium events.

In this role, you will be on-site and leading from the front to coordinate the delivery, installation, operation, and pack-down of audio-visual equipment, staging, structures, and event infrastructure. If you know how to motivate a crew, maintain tight schedules, and ensure everything is built safely and to a high standard, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Be Doing (Key Responsibilities):

• On-Site Leadership: Supervise, motivate, and manage event crew productivity during high-pressure bump-in and bump-out phases.

• Operations & Setup: Coordinate the physical setup and teardown of AV, staging, lighting, power, and temporary event infrastructure.

• Safety First: Conduct pre-start meetings and toolbox talks, ensuring strict compliance with WHS regulations and site safety requirements.

• Task Allocation: Efficiently allocate tasks to crew members based on their strengths and the day’s priorities.

• Stakeholder Liaison: Act as the main onsite point of contact, smoothly liaising with project managers, technicians, clients, and contractors.

• Problem Solving: Troubleshoot onsite logistics or technical issues rapidly to maintain strict event delivery schedules.

• Logistics & Asset Care: Oversee safe equipment handling, inventory tracking, and secure vehicle loading and unloading.

What We Are Looking For:

• Proven experience supervising or leading crews in event production, staging, or AV.

• A strong, hands-on work ethic. You love being on-site and working alongside your team.

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to manage diverse crews and high-end clients.

• A sharp eye for safety (WHS compliance) and quality presentation.

• Flexibility to work event hours, including early mornings, late nights, and weekends as required.

• A valid driver’s licence. An MR or HR licence or forklift ticket is a major plus.

What’s in It for You:

• Competitive Pay

• $74,000 – $80,000 per year

• Dynamic, fast-paced work environment where no two days are the same.

• Opportunity to work on high-profile, exciting events and activations.

• A supportive management team that values career progression and internal promotion.
