Event Command Limited

“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life” Houghton Festival is always a pleasure, but this year was something really special. Incredible inter-operability, excellent teamwork and a ton of middle of the night laughter that probably woke a few customers up at times - it really has been a joy. Event Command provided operations management, gate management, control room management and staffing along with our custom Incident Management Portal. I took very few actual event photos this weekend, so at silly o’clock this morning Mersey Medical Services Ltd and Event Command Limited decided to do a little joint working photoshoot featuring the only paperwork any of us had to hand - a Co-op Live Staff Handbook!

If you’re on an event that Event Command Limited is working, you’re part of our team regardless of where your pay check comes from. No cliques, no egos, no bad manners. Just a bunch of professionals from multiple agencies coming together to create safe and enjoyable experiences for guests and staff alike. Recieving this email from a contractor present in one of our regular venue control rooms was pretty special. We’re still learning and growing, but it’s great to know we’re getting the culture right. ❤️💚💙 #EventControl #People #Culture #Workplace #Events #EventManagement

We're delighted to be returning as the command and control provider for the biggest nightclub in the world, Drumsheds, this autumn! A venue like no other - where culture meets music in a 600,000sqft converted warehouse. It really is something truly special. We're on the lookout for highly experienced control room staff with a proven history of working in busy control rooms for either events or the emergency services (ideally both!). Think you fit the bill and interested in being part of the team? Register and find out all the details at https://lnkd.in/eB6K3ZJ3

A handy little guide from Event Command Limited to remind anyone looking after an event of the basics when issues and incidents arise - anything that helps you get back to Business as Usual ASAP is worth having to hand, and great to see a willingness to share in the events world #eventsafety #eventmanagement #eventprofs

The radio call comes in. It's the one you've been dreading. A proper sh*t hit the fan job. The terror attack, the acid attack, the genuinely suspicious item, the suicidal missing person. You've got every plan in a folder and years of experience to call upon, but for a few short seconds your mind goes blank. That's where our new booklet comes in. 12 pages of concise and clear guidance for control room operators to have within reaching distance for managing the first few minutes of critical incidents. Free of charge, to any event or venue with a control room in the UK. Request yours at https://lnkd.in/ewKXQisY

Today marks the start of our 2024 festival deployments, and more importantly the first day our team have worn their new uniform! If you’re on site with the Event Command Limited team this summer, you’ll be sure to see them showing it off! We’ve even included the #BeSafeBeSound campaign from Counter Terrorism Policing which we’ve been a proud supporter of for several years. The campaign encourages the public and event staff to report anything that concerns them and is a crucial part of the event industry’s renewed approach to deterring and detecting hostile acts at our shows. You can find out more about the campaign and download the toolkit at https://lnkd.in/eSekz4tv

It’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it! We’ve joined the team at DnB Allstars this weekend, on behalf of our client, to deliver the control room management for DnB Allstars Portugal! We’ve deployed an ex-police controller to manage and co-ordinate the control room, and the entire command and control function is being powered by our custom Incident Management Portal, enabling realtime information sharing for enhanced situational awareness. We’ve also deployed our lost property management system to streamline the process of dealing with the inevitable lost and found items, and reunite as many fans as possible with their belongings. Want to find out how we can help you this summer? Get in touch now! #eventcontrol #commandandcontrol

Do you want to come and work with us at some of the world’s biggest and most influential events? We're on the hunt for event control room staff with a background in emergency service control rooms and/or previous experience working in event control rooms.

We're especially keen to hear from SIA CCTV licensed event controllers based in the North West for an exciting new project in Manchester beginning in couple of months time 👀 https://lnkd.in/e7yTg2zF

We don’t just run control rooms. We design environments, layouts and signage which makes operators roles easier and empowers them to carry out their role to the highest standard. We worked with Broadwick to design their new event control centre for Drumsheds, the world’s largest club. Each controller’s position was chosen to be closest to the other agencies they will need to work with most, the CCTV layout to reflect the layout of the room, the signage to facilitate the strongest information sharing and the digital signage content to monitor internal and external intelligence sources. Powering the decision making process is our custom Incident Management Portal, with several features created specially for DRUMSHEDS. A new statistic gathering tool to monitor trends across the day; a lost property management tool which communicates with customers by SMS & email and a clinical notification function which delivers push notifications to the senior clinicians on site in the event of a life threatening medical report. All this helps to keep DRUMSHEDS London customers safe, protect the Broadwick brand and ensure every visitor has an enjoyable experience. #eventcontrol #eventmanagement #eventoperations #controlroom #nightclub
