Assistant Operations Manager
A BIT OF CONTEXT: Why we’re here
Since 1984, Stagestruck have been delivering world-class events, experiences and communications for globally recognized brands all over the world. During that time, we’ve adapted, grown and evolved to offer our clients an extensive range of services. What’s remained constant is a desire to be one of the best. We’re ambitious, we’re proud of our work and we want to help our clients with clever, inspired and insightful thinking.
To be effective at a business and brand level, we need great creative problem-solving people to produce brilliant ideas that can be implemented: ideas that change the way people feel, think and ultimately, behave.
Over the last couple of years, as the world has changed for us all, we have drawn on all of our knowledge, experience and in-house expertise to pivot from delivering Live and Hybrid events to also creating engaging Virtual experiences for our clients, their stakeholders and their audiences.
At Stagestruck we talk about ‘Effectiveness Through Creativity’
This is more than just being creative with how we conceptualize an event or experience. It’s ensuring that we utilize all of our expertise, resources and assets to deliver a truly integrated production and we achieve this by having all of our services in-house, ‘under one roof’, offering greater value for our clients.
It means we’re using much broader creativity to deliver effectiveness for our clients and that’s something worth paying for!
Importantly, it’s not just what we do; it’s how we do it. Our services are world-class, with foresight, insight, intelligence and an attention to detail that is second to none. What we do is often challenging; but with an infectious enthusiasm, along with a reassuringly professional approach, our clients always enjoy working with us, and keep coming back for more year after year.
