WE ARE LOOKING FOR A NEW MEMBER OF OUR TEAM.
Job description: AV and Audio integration Engineer
Company and Role.
Audioworks NW Ltd is a small AV and Audio integration business based in the Northwest / Yorkshire border. With over 25 years’ experience in the AV industry, we are looking to expand our team. We are currently recruiting for an AV and Audio integrator to work with our current team. We are looking for someone who either has current experience in the AV and Audio integration sector or is looking for a change in direction and has a keen interest in this sector.
Audioworks NW Ltd integrate high quality AV Installations in places of worship, educational establishments, from schools to universities, and across the heritage and museum sector. One of the main areas of our work is in houses of worship, predominantly in Christian based churches. The ideal candidate will be sympathetic to the faith-based sector we work in.
The right person will have an attention to detail, which is key as some of the buildings we integrate AV systems into are listed and need sensitive integration solutions. The ability to adapt to fit the needs of an historic building is key to the service we deliver in our sector.
The role will initially be working alongside the Senior Lead Installation Engineer and or the Project Manager to deliver pre specified AV and Audio Solutions.
Your day-to-day duties will include:
Full installation of AV and Audio solutions.
Attending customer premises to undertake full integrated AV and Audio requirements based on a pre specified brief and design.
