About the Role
Vicinity Events is looking for an enthusiastic Event Content Producer to support our team in delivering high-quality event productions. You’ll learn hands-on across videography, photography, editing and basic livestream support, while helping to keep shoots organised and clients informed.

• Pre-production support
  Help prepare call sheets, shot lists and schedules.
  Coordinate gear check-outs, batteries, media cards and backups.
  Research venues, suppliers and example references for creative direction.
• On-site production
  Assist camera ops and photographers (setting up tripods, lights, audio, gimbals).
  Help wrangle media, manage slates, log takes and maintain a tidy set.
  Support basic multi-camera/livestream setups (ATEM/switcher cable runs, mic checks).
  Be a calm, professional presence with clients and guests.
• Post-production
  Offload and back up footage to our cloud/workflow.
  Assist with selects, simple assemblies and basic colour/audio touch-ups.
  Cut short social clips, add lower thirds/captions and export to spec.
  Help with QC and file delivery naming/organisation.
• Team & client coordination
  Track timelines, chase assets and keep stakeholders updated.
  Take meeting notes and turn them into clear, actionable to-dos.

• Genuine interest in events, content creation and storytelling.
• Basic understanding of cameras, audio and editing software (DaVinci Resolve/Adobe Premiere Pro preferred) — or a strong willingness to learn.
• Good organisation and problem-solving skills; you notice details and follow through.
• Clear communication and a polite, service-oriented mindset with clients and crew.
• Comfortable with fast-paced, live environments and occasional evenings/weekends.
• Physically able to handle equipment setup/teardown.

• School projects, personal reels or TikTok/IG Reels you’ve edited.
• Familiarity with ATEM/switchers, basic lighting, or social-first editing.
• Simple motion graphics (titles/lower thirds) using After Effects or similar.
• Knowledge of colour workflows and file management.

• End-to-end event production fundamentals (pre → live → post).
• Multi-camera and livestream basics, from signal flow to show calling support.
• Professional client communication and on-site etiquette.
• Cloud-based collaboration (Frame.io/Google Workspace) and media management.

Start as Event Content Producer (Entry-Level) → develop into Event Content Producer → Senior Event Content Producer or Event Production Manager, based on performance and portfolio growth.

• Mainly on-site during events; prep and post work at the studio/hybrid as scheduled.
• If not, in office assisting with editing.
• Event hours may include evenings, weekends and public holidays (with time-off in lieu where applicable).

Send your CV/portfolio (personal projects welcome) and a short note on why you’d like to work in event production. If you have sample clips or social posts you’ve created, include links.
