You will provide installation services on a wide range of integrated Audio visual systems, designed to meet a client’s needs. As well as working on AV you may also work on control systems and network solutions.

The role will be mostly field-based, however, the successful candidate needs to be within easy reach of our Head Office in Exeter as there is often preparation and build of equipment in our workshop.

Projects are predominantly in the South of England (with over 50% in the South-West), London, the Midlands and Wales, so the candidate must be willing and able to travel and stay away overnight when required during the week. You will never be required to work weekends but there will be late finishes when required to complete the project on time. Where overtime is accrued, time off in lieu will be given.

You will work closely with the rest of the installation team to ensure that installations are completed within the specified time frame. Most of the work will be in a team of 2-4 persons, with some solo projects and service calls once you are comfortable with this.

We pride ourselves on being a solution-focused company, so we are looking for a natural problem-solver who can bring this attitude with them and use their experience to continue the history of bespoke installations we have. Our engineers are the faces of the company and we frequently receive outstanding feedback from customers about their attitude and professionalism, we are looking for someone who has strong communication skills and a very personable character.
