Factory International delivers a variety of live events and installations within the flexible performance spaces of Aviva Studios and its surrounding area. We present 5,000 capacity raves, large scale immersive works created by icons of the art world, intimate gigs in our Hall and everything in between. The company also runs the biennial Manchester International Festival which presents brand new shows by national and international artists at the top of their game in theatres, galleries and found spaces across Greater Manchester.

Aviva Studios was built to play host to premiere league art and performance, and at the same time to run top tier music gigs, conferences and talks. We are a home to artists and musicians, as well as a world class venue for commercial events.

Our Video Team are responsible for all aspects of projection, LED and other screen presentation, video playback, camera work, video networks and system integration (where relevant) throughout Aviva Studios. In a constantly changing mix of events, we require expertise in video processing and playback, a thorough understanding of video signal paths and networking, and experience of working in a multi-disciplined production team. Our core activities demand rigorous projection skills, good understanding of media servers and video editing, a knowledge of PTZ and operated cameras, and experience in live vision mixing.

The Deputy Head of Video will support the Head of Department, the wider Video team, Lighting, Sound and other Factory International teams to ensure that all of our spaces, events, and shows are delivered to an exceptional standard and accessible to everyone.
