Full job description

Event Operations Coordinator – Bar Construction & Live Operations (Fixed Term Contract)

Company: Columbia Events
Contract: Full TIme
Salary: £37,500
Location: London & South East–based, UK-wide event & festival sites

ABOUT THE ROLE

Columbia Events is seeking an Event Operations Manager with strong experience in event production, bar construction and live bar operations to support the delivery of temporary bar installations across festivals, sporting venues and live events year round.

This is a hands-on, site-focused role covering the full event lifecycle - from bar build and production through to live trading and breakdown. Working closely with the senior operations and bar management teams, you will support the physical delivery of bar structures, draught systems, site infrastructure and on-site operations during live event days.

This role suits someone with solid technical and operational experience in live events who is comfortable working across build and live environments and is ready to take on increased responsibility without full commercial ownership.

The role will require long periods of remote work where accommodation and food are fully provided

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

2-4 years’ experience in events.
Strong hands-on experience with bar builds, container bars or temporary hospitality structures
Good understanding of draught beer systems, cellar set-ups and bar back-of-house operations
Experience supporting live bar operations during events
Confident working on fast-paced, construction-style event sites
Willingness to work on-site at events, including extended build periods, weekends and time away
Experience working on licensed events

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Bar Construction & Event Production

Support the planning and delivery of temporary bar structures, container bars and back-of-house areas
Assist with site surveys, bar layouts and production planning
Coordinate bar builds, fit-outs and breakdowns
Support installation and testing of draught beer systems, cooling equipment and bar infrastructure
Assist with temporary power distribution, lighting and equipment positioning
Ensure builds are delivered in line with approved method statements, risk assessments and site plans

Live Bar Operations Support

Support bar managers during live event days to ensure smooth and efficient trading
Assist with cellar operations, stock movements and equipment troubleshooting
Help manage bar back operations, including keg changes, waste management and replenishment
Act as a practical point of contact between bar teams and operations during live trading
Support issue resolution related to equipment, infrastructure or site logistics during live events

Site & Build Operations

Support management of build and derig crews
Assist with plant, equipment and materials handling on site
Operate telehandler and other site machinery where required
Coordinate deliveries, load-ins and load-outs
Support warehouse preparation, equipment returns and post-event breakdowns

Team & Stakeholder Support

Act as a key on-site contact for crew, suppliers and subcontractors
Support senior operations staff with day-to-day site management
Communicate progress, issues and solutions clearly and proactively
Contribute practical ideas to improve build efficiency, bar operations and overall delivery

SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

Ability to work from site plans, bar layouts and build drawings
Telehandler licence (essential or near-essential depending on experience)
Good understanding of site health & safety and licensing requirements
Strong organisational and problem-solving skills
High attention to detail
Personal Licence Holder (preferred but not essential)

WHY COLUMBIA EVENTS

Columbia Events designs, builds and operates high-volume temporary bar solutions across festivals, sporting venues and live events. This role offers hands-on involvement across build, live trading and breakdown phases, exposure to complex bar operations, and a clear pathway into senior event production or operations roles.

Pay: £37,500.00 per year

Experience:

Event Industry: 2 years (required)

Licence/Certification:

Forklift Licence (required)

Work Location: In person
