Project Manager

Want to work at incredible and fun locations that most people only see on TV? We build event structures at professional stadiums and sporting facilities throughout the US. Our projects are mainly completed for professional and collegiate sporting events including Football, Soccer, Tennis, Auto Racing, Golf, Baseball, Hockey, and other sports. If you watch a game, match, or race on TV you likely have seen our completed projects without even knowing it.
The InProduction team has spent the better part of the last decade combining the best seating and staging companies into a one-stop shop for most of what is needed to produce an event. Starting with SGA Production Services, we added and integrated T&B Equipment, CommuniLux Productions, Nussli U.S., and Seating Solutions to become today's InProduction. These acquisitions have allowed InProduction to evolve into the largest provider of temporary seating, staging, structures, and scenic production for the United States events industry. Central are our people.

As an InProduction employee you are central to our sustained growth and success. We offer a rewarding career in a fast paced and exciting environment. Our employees demonstrate our core values in safety and quality every day while working to provide top notch service to our client partners. Whether working in the field, yard, warehouse, or office, InProduction offers a future with huge growth potential.
