Event Production Coordinator

Sound Investment AV
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 8/13/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 9/11/2026
Event Calendar, Production Schedule & CRM Management

The Production Coordinator is responsible for maintaining the accuracy and completeness of the company's Production Schedule, event calendars, and CRM. This person serves as the central point of accountability for ensuring that every event is captured, current, and consistent across these systems.

  • Ensure every event is entered and accurately reflected in the CRM, Production Schedule, and appropriate event calendar.

  • Maintain event calendars for New York, Chicago, and Moonlight Studios, ensuring all events are represented accurately.

  • Ensure every event on the Production Schedule includes complete and accurate dates, times, and locations.

  • Confirm and maintain all critical event timing, including applicable crew calls, load-in times, setup times, rehearsals, show times, event start/end times, and load-out times.

  • Confirm complete venue information, including venue name, address, room or event space, and other relevant location details.

  • Ensure the CRM accurately reflects the current status of each event, including changes as an opportunity progresses from the sales process into confirmed production.

  • Regularly compare the CRM, Production Schedule, and event calendars to ensure events and critical information are consistent across all three.

  • Identify missing events, outdated information, conflicting information, or discrepancies between systems and ensure they are corrected.

  • Proactively obtain missing information from Sales, Producers, Project Managers, or other appropriate team members. The Production Coordinator is responsible for identifying information gaps and following through until the necessary information is obtained and entered.

  • Meet with the Sales team weekly to review all upcoming and potential events, confirm that every event is accounted for, and verify the current status of each opportunity.

  • Use the weekly Sales meeting to identify newly confirmed events, date or venue changes, cancellations, tentative events, and other updates that need to be reflected in the CRM, Production Schedule, or calendars.

  • Ensure newly confirmed events are promptly transitioned from the sales pipeline into the production workflow.

  • Follow up on tentative or incomplete events until their status is clear and the appropriate systems have been updated.

  • Update event information promptly when dates, times, locations, status, or other critical details change.

  • Regularly audit upcoming events to identify missing information, scheduling conflicts, or discrepancies before they create operational problems.

  • Coordinate with Sales, Production, and Operations so upcoming event information is available early enough for staffing, equipment, transportation, and production planning.

Ownership & Accountability

The Production Coordinator is expected to actively own the accuracy of these systems rather than simply entering information provided by others.

For every upcoming event, this person should be able to verify:

  • Is the event properly represented in the CRM?

  • Is it on the correct NY, Chicago, and/or Moonlight Studios calendar?

  • Is it on the Production Schedule?

  • Are the date, venue, location, and all relevant event times complete and accurate?

  • Does the CRM accurately reflect the event's current status?

  • Is the information consistent across all applicable systems?

  • If information is missing, who has it and has it been followed up on?

  • Have changes been communicated to the appropriate Sales, Production, and Operations team members?

If an event is missing, incomplete, or inaccurate in any of these systems, the Production Coordinator is responsible for identifying the issue, obtaining the necessary information, and ensuring it is corrected.
