Description
TED is a global nonprofit dedicated to spreading ideas that matter — through talks, conferences, and experiences that connect and inspire. Our events bring together diverse voices to share ideas that shape the future.
TED is an equal opportunity employer and contractor engager committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and provide reasonable accommodation throughout the hiring process.
TED is seeking an Event Producer & Print Production Lead (Contractor) to join the Event Operations team. This is a role built for someone who thinks like an event producer first — comfortable owning full conference production, from logistics to load-out — and who brings that same operational rigour to TED's print and signage operations. Day-to-day, you'll own the full lifecycle of every printed asset from brief through on-site installation, across a busy calendar of world-class conferences and events.
The strongest candidates will come from an event production background. That experience translates directly: you already understand how to manage vendors under pressure, navigate production timelines, maintain brand standards on-site, and juggle competing priorities across complex projects. Print and signage coordination, for the right person, is a natural extension of that skillset.
You will flex across both functions as the event calendar demands — serving as TED's internal lead on all printing, environmental graphics, and signage, while stepping into full event operations ownership during peak production phases. This role suits someone equally at home building a production schedule and reviewing a print proof.
