We're working with a forward‑thinking company that specialises in delivering cutting‑edge Audio Visual (AV) and Video Conferencing (VC) solutions to a wide range of clients. Following a strong year of growth and exciting new projects with some of the UK's top contractors, they are looking to add a talented individual to their team.

If you enjoy taking ownership of your work, thrive on problem‑solving, and want to work in a modern, supportive environment, this role could be just what you're looking for.

The Role

As an AV Commissioning Engineer, you'll play a key role in ensuring the successful delivery of high‑quality AV, VC, and collaboration projects. You'll take charge of on‑site and off‑site commissioning, testing, and finalising systems to meet client expectations.

You’ll also work closely with colleagues, clients, and subcontractors to troubleshoot, guide, and make sure everything is running smoothly.

Your Responsibilities Will Include

• Commissioning and debugging systems during project delivery, ensuring everything is to spec.
• Preparing AV racks and systems in the office, using checklists to ensure all equipment is ready before heading to site.
• Working with the Technical Manager on Crestron Control and Audio DSP programming, keeping all files organised.
