Role Purpose

As Manager, Venue Planning and Operations within Broadcast Services, you help carry the Olympic and Paralympic Games to the world. In the years leading up to LA28, you plan how competition venues support world-class broadcast, partnering with the Olympic Broadcasting Services production teams and shaping the infrastructure behind every moment audiences see.

• Lead World Broadcaster Meetings and briefings, managing deliverable submissions and the flow of technical information.

• Lead site visits to competition venues, assessing broadcast infrastructure needs and informing planning decisions accordingly.
• Partner across Venue Infrastructure, Technology, Hospitality and Ticketing and Games Operations to streamline approvals and optimizations.

Physical Requirements & Working Conditions

• Available to work onsite in our Downtown Los Angeles-based office.
• The majority of work will be conducted in an office setting, requiring extended periods of time using computers, phones, and other office equipment.
• The LA28 office is an open floorplan working environment; employees must be able to work efficiently in an open cubicle environment.
• Hours of work may vary, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, especially during peak event periods.
