As an MCR Operator, you will work in a fast-paced live sports environment ensuring our live operations are uninterrupted and run smoothly. Our work is mission critical; we are on the front line of the company’s global content ingest, pulling in sporting content from across the globe for use on multiple platforms. Our schedules follow global sport calendars, so this position requires working days, nights, weekends and public holidays on a shift basis along with the sports calendar.

  • Take responsibility of the management of IP contribution circuits.
  • Complete routing and switching of events based on internal booking system.
  • Provide first line support for any issues that arise in the live broadcast environment

  • Ability to work in a high-pressure environment
  • Ability to work nights and weekends on a semi-regular basis
  • Basic understanding of broadcast procedures and processes

Even better if you have:

  • Knowledge of IP protocols and networking
  • Knowledge of satellite delivery, decrypting and decoding
  • Experience in use of broadcast equipment such as SA, IRDs, AV / RF routers etc
  • Prior experience working within an MCR environment

At DAZN, we bring ambition to life. We are innovators, game-changers and pioneers. So, if you want to push boundaries and make an impact, DAZN is the place to be.
