About the Role

We're looking for an experienced Technical Manager to join KOJO's Sport team and lead the technical delivery of live sporting and entertainment productions across Melbourne, Regional Victoria and national events. We are also considering applicants in Tasmania.

This is a client-facing, hands‑on leadership role responsible for planning, coordinating and delivering technical solutions that support world‑class sport presentation and broadcast outcomes. Working closely with producers, technical teams, venues, broadcasters and clients, you'll ensure every event is delivered safely, efficiently and to the highest technical standard.

You'll be involved throughout the entire event lifecycle – from technical planning and system design through to live event delivery and post‑event support. The role also plays an important part in maintaining KOJO's production infrastructure, driving technical innovation and contributing to the ongoing development of our national technical capability.

As part of a team-oriented national team, you'll work across a broad range of projects including permanent production facilities, outside broadcasts, fly‑away production systems, live streaming, virtual production, corporate events and integrated broadcast solutions.

This role offers the opportunity to work with cutting‑edge technology while delivering some of Australia's most recognised sporting and entertainment events. As live production operates outside traditional business hours, flexibility to work evenings, weekends and interstate when required is essential.
