Bring Joy. Create Connections. Make Memories.


At Merlin Entertainments, we’re on a mission to be the global leader in branded entertainment destinations and the greatest place to work and play.

From LEGOLAND® to the London Eye, SEA LIFE to Madame Tussauds, Merlin Magic Making is the heartbeat of our attractions, where world-class ideas are imagined, designed and brought to life.


We’re now searching for an exceptional Creative Producer on a fixed term contract with a passion for live events and immersive experiences to join our newly formed Events Team. You’ll help shape unforgettable moments across some of Merlin’s most iconic attractions, working with beloved global IPs and creating sharable, guest-first experiences that surprise and delight.


About the Role

As Creative Producer, you’ll be at the heart of the projects, supporting the creative development and execution of standout seasonal events and brand activations, from the very first spark of an idea through to on-site delivery. You’ll be the critical bridge between creative vision and operational excellence, making sure everything is on-brand, on-brief, on-time and on-budget.


This is a hands-on, high-impact role that will see you working across teams, countries and creative disciplines, collaborating with internal stakeholders, global IP partners and external suppliers to bring bold ideas to life.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Work closely with Creative Leads to run Event projects end-to-end, managing timelines, budgets and creative output

  • Translate concepts into physical experiences, supervising art direction and ensuring high-quality delivery

  • Collaborate closely with Ops, Marketing, Delivery and Creative teams to align project goals

  • Manage third-party suppliers including AV, fabrication and performance partners

  • Support international site visits, ensuring consistency across attractions

  • Present to senior stakeholders and IP partners, keeping everyone aligned and informed

  • Propose new ideas and improvements, ensuring we learn and evolve with each event

  • Ensure everything complies with brand, safety and operational guidelines

Qualifications & Experience:
  • A strong track record of producing high-quality, guest-centric events (agency and/or in-house experience)

  • Experience in live shows, interactive tech, AV and themed environments

  • Proven ability to manage complex projects and multiple stakeholders

  • Strong commercial awareness, including budget management and supplier negotiations

  • Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and understanding of technical drawings

  • Ability to travel internationally as needed

  • A collaborative, can-do spirit with a knack for inspiring teams and partners

What We’re Looking For

  • A visionary creative producer who can translate bold ideas into real-world experiences

  • A confident project and budget manager with exceptional organisation skills

  • A brilliant communicator, relationship-builder and team player

  • Someone who’s passionate about creating joy, connecting people and making memories that last

Why Merlin?

You’ll be joining a company where imagination runs wild, and creativity powers everything we do. You’ll get to work on projects that reach millions of guests globally and you’ll do it as part of a supportive, energetic team that loves what they do.
