ENGLISH We're looking for a Technical Producer who safeguards and develops the technical DNA of our productions. Someone who translates complex artistic and production plans into technically feasible and executable productions — and who builds a scalable technical standard that grows with us. As a Technical Producer you are responsible for everything technical: technical drawings, riders, AV, rigging and power. About us
Making Waves is an ambitious events organisation active in the dance and theatre sectors. With brands like Cinema in Concert, ZeeZout, By the Creek and Ohm Festival, we produce a wide variety of live events: from film concerts in Het Concertgebouw and large-scale concerts in Rotterdam Ahoy to unique festivals, club nights and distinctive cross-over events.

Driven by quality, creativity and a distinctive audience experience. About the role

If there's a good match, we may invite you to come along to one of our productions, so you get a direct sense of the role and working environment. Good to know
