Experiential Producer

Leading Agency | Freelance | £350-£400 per day | 3-Month Contract | Central London | Hybrid

I'm working with a leading agency looking for an experienced Experiential Producer to join the team on a freelance basis for an initial three-month contract.

This is a great opportunity for a producer who loves bringing brands to life through real-world experiences, live activations and memorable audience interactions, ideally with a strong background in sport and entertainment.

The team is looking for someone who can take ideas from concept through to execution, confidently managing the detail behind the scenes to make sure every element comes together seamlessly.

You'll need to be comfortable working at pace, managing multiple moving parts and collaborating with creative teams, clients, suppliers and production partners to deliver standout experiences.

What you'll be doing

• Leading the production of experiential campaigns and activations, from initial brief and planning through to build, live delivery and wrap-up.

• Working closely with Creative, Account Management and wider agency teams to turn ideas into practical, deliverable production plans.

• Managing project timelines, budgets, schedules, resources and production logistics.

• Sourcing, briefing and managing suppliers, production partners, venues and other external stakeholders.

• Coordinating all aspects of event and activation delivery, ensuring everything is planned, resourced and ready to go.

• Working closely with clients and internal teams to keep projects on track, manage expectations and communicate progress.

• Overseeing production schedules, build and breakdown requirements, on-site logistics and live event delivery.

• Identifying potential risks and challenges early, developing solutions and ensuring the right contingency plans are in place.

• Managing multiple workstreams and deadlines while maintaining a strong eye for detail.

• Ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently, within budget and to the highest possible standard.

What we're looking for

You'll ideally bring:

• Proven experience as an Experiential Producer within an agency or brand-side environment.

• A strong track record delivering experiential campaigns, brand activations, live events or audience experiences.

• Experience within sport and/or entertainment is particularly desirable, whether that's live sporting events, entertainment partnerships, fan experiences, sponsorship activations or large-scale brand experiences.

• Excellent production management skills, with the ability to take ownership from planning through to execution.

• Strong budget management, supplier negotiation and production logistics experience.

• Confidence managing clients, creative teams, suppliers and multiple stakeholders.

• The ability to juggle competing priorities and keep projects moving in a fast-paced environment.

• A practical, solutions-focused mindset, with the confidence to make decisions and resolve issues under pressure.

• Flexibility around live delivery, including being comfortable on-site when projects require it.

The person behind the production matters

We're looking for someone who is organised, proactive and calm under pressure.

You'll be the person who thinks ahead, spots the potential issues before they happen and makes sure the detail is taken care of. Someone who can work collaboratively, communicate confidently and keep everyone focused on delivering the best possible result.

You'll need to be hands-on, adaptable and comfortable taking ownership, particularly when plans change or things get busy.

Most importantly, you understand that great experiential work isn't just about the idea - it's about the quality of the execution.

The work

You'll be working across experiential campaigns and live brand experiences, with a particular interest in projects connected to sport and entertainment.

Expect a varied mix of creative production, brand activations and live experiences, with plenty of moving parts and the opportunity to help bring ambitious ideas to life.

This role would suit a producer who enjoys working at the intersection of creativity, logistics and live delivery, and who thrives on seeing a project come together in the real world.
