AV Hire and Staging Manager

AV Hire and Staging Manager

 

Battersea, London SW8

 

Remuneration: basic salary £30k and generous monthly profit share

 

 

We are a very long-established specialist audio visual company in Battersea, London, installing AV systems and operating a hire and event staging service.

 

We have a vacancy for an energetic individual to manage and grow our small Hire and Staging Department, providing an efficient service to our established client base while building and developing it. This is very much a hands-on job with, initially at least, as much time spent working on projects as on building client relationships and growing the business.

 

The successful candidate will need:

 

* A good general understanding of AV.

* At least three years’ experience in the AV industry

* Good knowledge of the technology: sound, lighting, projection,staging, video, VC etc.

* Decent IT skills. MS Windows & Office as a minimum

* To be physically fit (this is far from a desk job)

* To have a clean driving licence

 

Less easy to define are the personal qualities we are looking for. We want someone who is articulate and will get on well with clients, even when they are being over-demanding. You’ll need to be organised, and able to organise others. And you’ll need good commercial instincts, to price jobs, judge when to discount, and know whether a job is making or losing money.

 

We are looking for someone who wants to ‘take ownership’ of the department and to build it up, and to reflect this the remuneration package will be a mix of basic salary and a generous profit share. It will suit someone who has been working in the industry for a few years, who has entrepreneurial instincts, and feels they are now ready to run their own operation and fly with it… and are prepared to put in the effort to make it happen.

 

If this sounds interesting we’re keen to hear from you.
