There is always a lot going on at IPS, and as we constantly evolve as a company, we are on the lookout for more full time staff to join our team. There are opportunities for most levels of experience, so if the technical side of events is something that you find interesting and you'd like to learn on the job, or if you have been in the industry for years with tales of all kinds of events we'd like to hear from you. Perhaps you are returning to events from another industry sector and wanting to try a warehouse based role rather than being out on the road all the time, or maybe you just get excited at the prospect of working how to fit all that kit into that truck...

If you would like to know more about any of these roles, please get in touch via email and introduce yourself via This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Let us know what sort of work you'd be interested in, and a bit about yourself and we'll send over more details. Ideally, include a current CV and put the title of the job that has caught your eye as the subject line.

• Goods In Operative

IPS work with Freelance staff on a regular basis to supplement our existing team. The majority of our work is Staging & Structures based, (almost all our projects have a bit of LiteDeck on them somewhere!) although our work also regularly includes Rigging, Lighting, Sound, Video and Power Generation & Distribution.

We are now taking applications for Summer Staff 2024

Are you studying on a technical or events related course and looking to gain some practical experience working on festival and event sites all over the UK this summer? Our summer staff scheme is an opportunity to work alongside the IPS team and earn money whilst learning the ropes. Most of the summer work is Staging & Structures based (almost all our projects have a bit of LiteDeck on them somewhere!) although our work also regularly includes Rigging, Lighting, Sound, Video and Power Generation & Distribution.

- Gain Experience

- Develop Your Skills

- Make Connections

- Earn Money

The summer staff works as a paid fixed term contract typically running between May and October, although we can vary exact dates to suit individual applicants. Based in Milton Keynes, this role would involve working in our warehouse and on a range of event sites all over the UK. A lot of physical work is required within this role, so you would need to be prepared for an amount of manual tasks including regularly working outside. It is a great way to gain practical experience to support skills being learnt and find out how things really work onsite.

If this sounds like something that would suit you, please send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with the subject line 'Summer Staff 2024' and include your contact details, a current CV and a brief explanation of why you would like to work with IPS. 

There is also scope for warehouse only based roles if you are less keen to get onsite, and we are also happy to discuss other placement or work experience based options if you are excited to work with us but the summer staff position doesn't quite work for you - please get in touch to discuss further.

IPS has launched a dedicated Design Suite. Based with the IPS Milton Keynes warehouse, this smart space is fitted with everything required for creative lighting design.

A high specification PC workstation running the latest version of Cast WYSIWYG Perform is the heart of the setup, connected via a Luminex ArtNet node to the lighting desk of your choice. A 60" UHD monitor means that visualisations can be easily seen. There is even a sofa area with refreshments and a TV for when you need a break, and a separate desk with WI-FI enabling a production manager or designer to work alongside a programmer if required.

IPS have a range of lighting desks from Avolites, Chamsys and GrandMA within the hire inventory that can be used in the Design Suite, or you can supply your own. Also, if a particular lighting fixture is required for demo, or to work out pixel mapping for example, there is a dedicated 16a supply in the room so this can be brought in as required.

• The Design Suite has the following equipment:
• Control Desk Space with 22" Illyama HD Monitor, 60" UHD Samsung Monitor & Yamaha Active Studio Reference Speakers
• WYSIWYG Rack including workstation PC running WYSIWYG Perform release 37 & Luminex 8 way ArtNet Node
• Lighting Desk of your choice (subject to availability)
• Office Desk with Wi- Fi
• Sofa Area with Coffee Machine, Beer Fridge & HD TV with Freeview
• Dimmable lighting with Blue LEDs

To book the design suite, or for more details, please get in touch with your project manager, or contact us here.
