Available to hire
Hi, I’m John-Paul Lamb. I’m a Cork-based media and events professional with around five years of hands-on experience across radio presenting, DJing, event safety, journalism, and hospitality. I currently DJ and present four music-based shows on Your Hits Digital in Dublin and work as an Event Safety Steward with AOS Security, keeping crowds safe and ensuring every event runs smoothly.
I’ve also worked as a gardener, tour guide, and maintenance/groundskeeper, which has helped me stay adaptable, solutions-focused and physically active. I’m enthusiastic about joining a team where I can bring creativity, reliability, and strong communication to every project.
