ABOUT ON AIR
Hardly anyone goes to concerts or the theatre as much as they would like. Often life gets in the way; whether it’s the kids, the difficult logistics or the tickets that sold out in no time. With ON AIR we can experience these events as if we were part of them, but without leaving the comfort of our own home.
ON AIR is a real-time live event streaming platform for music, theatre, opera, ballet, comedy, and other live performances. People can go to the platform (website, mobile or smart tv) to browse upcoming events, buy tickets to a live broadcast, chat with other fans, get up to date on your favorite artists and watch the latest music videos.
Key to ON AIR’s proposition is its premium production quality. That’s why the startup partnered with award-winning production teams that worked with the likes of Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, and Adele. ON AIR is currently having talks with major labels and performers to film, produce and distribute the best shows and performances.
THE TEAM
ON AIR is founded by u. Digital, a family-owned investment company. Jakub Krampl, who started ON AIR, is the CEO and Director. His background is in investment banking in London, specializing in tech and media.
ON AIR has formed strategic partnerships with several businesses that helped bring the project to fruition. The technology development is handled by Hungarian and Dutch developers and is built on top of Akamai’s delivery system. There’s a team of three talent executives responsible for handling relationships with artists and labels and the management is advised on all legal matters by a specialist media, technology and IP law firm from London.

VACANCY: COO
ON AIR is nearing its product launch. The platform is ready and is now being tested extensively. The Talent Team, responsible for sourcing artists, and the Legal Team, responsible for drafting contracts, are in place. That gives the COO the chance to join the team when the business is just about to take off.
MANAGING DAILY OPERATIONS
The COO is Jakub’s counterpart. While he focuses on bringing in new artists and events, the COO makes sure the events are broadcasted flawlessly. That includes overseeing the partnerships and commercial contracts, e.g. with the production company and the marketing agencies, coordinating between admin, tech and support teams, and working with clients to get approval on content and design of event pages.
Another key responsibility of the COO is to build the team. He/she hires new employees, makes sure the capacity of the team matches the scale-up of the business and puts in place office management processes and tools.
OPERATIONAL AND STRATEGICAL
As part of the leadership team, the COO needs commercial, strategic and operational qualities. He/she will be involved in major strategic decisions – e.g. when to start building in-house tech development capabilities, or which new features to add to ON AIR’s proposition later on – and needs to be able to troubleshoot operational issues on the spot.
