  • Design and deliver a high-quality virtual contestant and judging experience, including platform setup, judge onboarding, scoring rubrics, scheduling, technical readiness, and contingency planning.
  • Notify and onboard selected contestants, managing communications, deliverables, and readiness through the onsite event.

Requirements

  • Experience managing large talent pools in entertainment, casting, or live events—you've moved a high volume of people through a structured selection process.
  • Strong prioritization and time management skills.
  • Ability to create and manage a database of contestants and metabolize client notes with grace.
  • Professional discretion, organization, adaptability, and meticulous attention to detail.
  • Ability to work nights and weekends as needed.
Benefits
