WHO WE ARE

Wake The Tiger is a radical creative company born in the South West and the visionary force behind the worlds first Amazement Park. We fuse immersive art, storytelling, and purpose to create unforgettable experiences that disrupt the norm and ignite transformation.

Following the success of our Bristol site, were expanding to London in 2026 with an all-new immersive world designed to spark imagination and challenge perception on a whole new scale.

Our mission is simple: We create immersive experiences for everyone, where art, storytelling and purpose collide - to inspire change today that transforms the world tomorrow.

Our vision is to: INSPIRE. DISRUPT. BELIEVE. For a better world.

THE ROLE

We are seeking an experienced and visionary Production Manager to join Wake the Tiger London at a pivotal moment, mid-way through our initial build phase, and become a permanent part of the team as the venue opens and grows.

You will be joining the project mid-way through the build phase, immersing yourself in an already live and complex production environment, and continuing with the organisation through to operational opening and beyond. At Wake the Tiger, production activity never stops: once the venue opens, there are seasonal builds, new installations, exhibit refreshes, and creative updates running continuously alongside day-to-day operations. You will own that cycle from end to end, delivering the initial build to the highest creative standards, leading the opening, and then continuing to produce the programme of works that keeps the experience fresh and evolving.

You will work closely with the Creative Director, Technical Lead, and the wider organisation, balancing the demands of live operations with an always-active production pipeline.

Ensure all freelancers and contractors are inducted, briefed, and compliant with health and safety standards.
Track attendance for freelancers who are billing direct to WTT, manage sign-in/out systems, and ensure labour is effectively scheduled.
Line manage direct reports, including building and overseeing rota coverage to ensure consistent technical support across park opening hours.

Health, Safety & Compliance

Enforce compliance with CDM, health and safety, fire safety, and safeguarding procedures.
Ensure the COSHH register is maintained and conducts COSHH assessments for hazardous substances.
Oversee the safe disposal of waste products generated by the Production Team.
Act as the primary site contact for emergency procedures, first aid, and safety briefings.
Work with Health & Safety leads to maintaining and enforcing up-to-date RAMS (Risk Assessments and Method Statements) for all parties.
Ensure all sets are safely installed, secure, and structurally sound before handover.
On completion provide a complete set of overhead rigging information to act as the basis for ongoing checks.

Budget and Financial Management

Track production and build budgets alongside the Creative Director, procurement, and report regularly on spend vs forecast.
Identify and mitigate overspend risks early, finding practical solutions to stay within budget.
Plan and manage resources across the technical function, including workshop and space scheduling, materials, and budget reallocation where required

Skills & Experience:

Strong experience managing complex set builds, productions, or construction sites for large-scale projects.
Strong knowledge of construction processes, set fabrication, and materials.
In-depth knowledge of health & safety regulations, CDM responsibilities, and site management.
