At FIX8Group, over the past 17 years, we have delivered projects for some of the largest brands on the planet and we don’t see that changing.  Clients from the world of Music, Formula 1, Film, TV and huge international corporations have put their faith in our delivery of amazing experiences. We work collaboratively with our clients, pushing creative boundaries and seeking out cutting-edge technology. We are not just your normal audio visual company, we offer something far different and key to our success is our amazing team.

In the role you will have the chance to increase your AV experience whilst delivering fantastic events. Ultimately, your success will be demonstrated by successful execution and creation of amazing experiences.

We have witnessed incredible growth within our business and within the industry, and now see no reason that will not continue. Consequently, we want to strengthen our team, creating resilience and securing an exciting future.

The role we are recruiting for is Audio Visual (AV) Technician / Warehouse Technical Operative.

This role is for a key individual to assist with delivering complex, AV solutions as determined by the project specification and adapting to client changes during the event. This will be a multi disciplinary position covering audio, lighting and production, and development opportunities lie within the role. The role is part of a team and vital to the smooth running of our business operations, providing perfectly maintained and prepared equipment for every event.

Main Responsibilities:

• Keep abreast of changes in AV technology in order to develop innovative and new ideas as the business strives to be ahead of competitors in the arena in which it operates.
• Operating as a key member of the team delivering any and all matters relating to the project.
• Acting as an integral member of the Warehouse team in the process of preparing all necessary equipment for delivery of each project.

The entire team at FIX8Group are high achievers, who demonstrate results with determination and pride to succeed at everything they do. Our culture is engaging, collaborative, inspiring and fun. The role is certainly not for the feint hearted and wont suit someone who wishes purely to be desk-bound. We are looking for someone to get stuck in, helping to deliver whatever is required on site, following guidance but showing initiative and a practical approach to achieving solutions.
