# Creator Programming Manager

> THA by ARMONIA · Riyadh, Saudi Arabia · Contract · Posted 2026-10-12

**Workplace:** on_site

**Department:** Confidential

## Description

**About the Role**

We are recruiting a Creator Park Manager to join a dedicated, full-time team embedded in our client’s Festival Programming function in Riyadh. The team will support two major events in Saudi Arabia: a flagship event in summer 2027 (July to August) and a further event in November 2027.

You will run the festival’s influencer zone, the Creator Park. You will decide which creators appear and when, and shape everything fans experience there, including:

-   Stage schedules
-   Creator line-ups
-   The content calendar
-   Fan experiences
-   Content capture

You will recommend creators to the client and design the formats, such as showmatches, meet and greets and community moments. You will also plan the practical set-up behind every format, from PCs and internet connectivity to filming and creator areas, and make real-time decisions on site.

This is a hands-on producing role. The grade reflects your seniority and judgement, not the size of a team you supervise. We are looking for a programmer who personally builds the creator schedules, formats and content calendars.

**Key Responsibilities**

Creator Park Programming

-   Programme the Creator Park, including its stages, creator schedules, content calendar, fan experience and content capture.
-   Build a line-up and schedule that keeps fans engaged throughout each event.

Creator and Talent Coordination

-   Identify and recommend creators to the client, who makes the final decision and handles contracting.
-   Coordinate with creators, creator organisations and talent management teams.

Format Design

-   Design formats such as showmatches, meet and greets, community moments and content capture.
-   Define the mechanics, throughput, space and staffing needs of every format.

Operational Planning

-   Plan the operational needs of the Creator Park, including hardware, software, connectivity, content capture, stages and creator areas.
-   Turn creative formats into clear technical and operational requirements.

Live Delivery and Review

-   Make real-time decisions on site during the live events.
-   Capture performance after each event cycle so the programme can keep improving.

## Requirements

-   At least 5 years of experience in creator-led programming or esports events, at Manager level.
-   Experience across at least two live event seasons.
-   A proven record of personally producing creator and club programming, scheduling and live delivery. Only experience where you personally produced the work counts towards the requirement.

**Ideal Background**

-   A creator, influencer or esports programmer from large-scale live events.
-   Established relationships with creator organisations and talent management are a strong advantage.

**Languages**

-   Professional English is required.
-   Arabic is preferred.

**Working Conditions**

-   Full-time and exclusive: you will be dedicated to the client for the full contract term, with no other clients or projects.
-   Working options: work remotely on Riyadh hours (Sunday to Thursday), with travel to Riyadh and event locations as directed, or be based at the client’s office in Riyadh.
-   On site in Riyadh: you must be in Riyadh for the full operating periods of the summer 2027 event (July to August) and the November 2027 event, whichever working option you choose.

## Benefits

-   A competitive package for the duration of a 14-month contract, with the potential to extend by up to 3 months
-   Flexible working, with a remote option during the planning phase
-   Creative ownership of the festival’s creator and influencer programme
-   A senior, hands-on role in a dedicated specialist team embedded with a major client
-   Valuable experience on one of the region’s most high-profile live events programmes
