Annualized contract. The role is usually performed from our TV Studios in West London; you may also be required to work from other production locations. Due to the nature of live sport, you will be expected to work unsociable hours, weekends, and occasional long hours. This role is offered on a UK employment contract. Candidates must be based in the UK as we are unable to support remote working from outside the country due to local employment and tax legislation.

This role sits within the Live, Servicing and Operations team at Deltatre — providing graphics, data gathering, data distribution, and operational support to global sports and entertainment customers.

As Senior Graphics Operator – Tennis, you will deliver live graphics during tennis broadcasts in continuous communication with the production crew — TV director, producer, and others — across pre-match, live, and post-match windows. Your job is to propose and display the most relevant captions, statistics, and narrative moments to enrich the storytelling of the event and the experience for fans watching.

Responsibilities

• Deliver live tennis graphics during pre-match, live, and post-match windows
• Communicate continuously with the production crew (TV director, producer, and others) during broadcasts
• Propose the most relevant captions, statistics, and narrative content to enrich the storytelling and viewer experience
• Operate broadcast graphics tools (Viz Trio, Viz Artist, and related production software) accurately under live conditions
• Adapt quickly to bespoke applications and updated tooling as the platform evolves
• Work in client-facing situations with TV production teams during live events
• Set up, test, and prepare graphics workflows in the moments before a match starts

You can stay focused during live broadcasts where the timing is fixed and the audience is watching. You learn new tools quickly, communicate clearly with the production crew in real time, and treat the small details of on-screen graphics — the right caption at the right moment — as part of the craft.

Required

• Demonstrated experience in live TV graphics operations
• Ability to pick up new technical skills and bespoke applications quickly
• Computer literate and comfortable with Windows operating systems
• Basic familiarity with broadcast infrastructure (video infrastructure, reference signal, operations) and Windows hardware (laptops, workstations)
• Clear written and spoken communication, including in client-facing situations
• Available for shift work including evenings, weekends, and occasional long hours during live events

Valued

• Experience with Viz Trio and Viz Artist
• Experience with Adobe After Effects and Photoshop
• A broadcast or IT background
• Interest in 3D graphic design
• Genuine interest in tennis and other sports — useful for editorial judgement on which graphics matter and when
• Experience working in client-facing broadcast environments

Who Thrives Here

Live broadcast graphics is a discipline. The systems are demanding, the timing is fixed, and the difference between a memorable moment and a missed one can come down to whether the right caption appears at the right second. The people who do this well stay calm during live windows, curious about the platforms they operate, and disciplined about preparing in the moments before a match starts.

A successful Senior Graphics Operator at Deltatre tends to be honest about what is working in the broadcast and what is not, comfortable communicating with the production crew under time pressure, and interested in the sport itself — not only the technical operation. The role rewards judgement and steady execution more than heroics.

What we offer

• Comprehensive training to perform the role autonomously
• Opportunities to extend into other sports, product testing, and broader operations work
• An annualized contract that reflects the seasonal pattern of live sport

Process and what to expect

• 1-hour Technical round of Interview: we will deep dive on your experience and collect examples of the responsibilities you've been dealing with in your past experience. A chance to deep dive on the role and for you to ask questions.
• 1-hour Competency Based Interview: we will ask you situational questions around how you deal with real-life scenarios at work. Easier doing it, more than explaining it.
