When I'm working on live football commentaries my role is too ensure that all the equipment is working and that we are able to broadcast live, plus working with our presenter, commentator, pundit and reporter to create a cohesive and entertaining show. Tournaments I have worked at include the Qatar World Cup 2022, Women’s Euro’s 2022 and the Men’s Euro’s 2020. I have produced FA Cup finals, Champions league games and EFL playoff finals. I am also the Horse racing producer and have worked at the Cheltenham Festival, Grand National, Royal Ascot and the Qatar Goodwood Festival.I also co-ordinate and do the logistics for numerous show outside broadcasts, leading the different teams and overseeing the process from the initial planning stage right up until the live show broadcast both in the UK and abroad.
