  • Provide live monitoring, routing, and troubleshooting of feeds from the broadcast operations hub.

  • Liaise with production, engineering, and external partners to ensure smooth delivery and swift resolution of technical issues.

  • Maintain transmission schedules, logs, and technical documentation.

  • Support post-event reporting and day-to-day broadcast operations.

What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience in live broadcast operations, ideally within a live sports or major events environment.

  • Strong understanding of contribution and distribution workflows (satellite, fibre, IP/SRT/Zixi, BT Tower).

  • Confident in video/audio monitoring, signal routing, and talkback systems.

  • Excellent organisational skills, attention to detail, and composure under pressure.

  • A proactive communicator who enjoys problem-solving in a fast-paced environment.

  • Flexibility to work shifts, including evenings and weekends.

If you’re ready to help deliver world-class live sports coverage to millions of fans worldwide, we’d love to hear from you.
