Technical Events Specialist & Manager

I’m Philip Venter — Technical Events Specialist, Technical Manager & Senior Audio Engineer

For more than two decades, I’ve been the calm head in the control room and on the show floor — designing systems, coordinating suppliers, and leading crews to deliver seamless live productions.

From high-energy festivals and corporate shows to orchestral performances and international headliners, I make complex technical operations feel effortless — combining precision, creativity, and clear communication to bring every event to life.

Philip’s greatest joy is his family — a proud husband and dad who brings the same dedication, calm, and care to every production as he does at home.

What I bring to your event:

  • End-to-end technical event management: planning, supplier coordination, build, show, and breakdown
  • Deep audio and systems expertise with a strong grasp of lighting, staging, rigging, networking, and comms
  • Leadership under pressure—clear communication, clean run-sheets, and decisive troubleshooting
  • A reputation for precision, reliability, and professionalism across large, multi-vendor builds

Availability: Freelance for festivals, corporate productions, and large-scale events. Open to a permanent position with a company that values expertise, innovation, and excellence in technical event delivery.
