£40,000 – £47,500
Full time | Permanent | Technical / Events / AV / Engineering
I am working with a seriously impressive technical production business who are looking for a AV Technical Manager to join their team, and this is exactly the kind of role where ex-military candidates tend to thrive.
If you’ve come from the forces and moved into engineering, technical, IT, signals, comms, AV, events, or anything hands-on where organisation and responsibility matter, this could be a brilliant fit. Would be suitable for Royal Sigs, RAF, CIS, REME electronics or avionics folks.
This is a fast-paced, practical role where you’ll be leading from the front, making sure equipment is prepped, built, tested and ready to go for live projects, installs and events. It needs someone who is methodical, calm under pressure and comfortable taking ownership — all the things I see time and time again in ex-military candidates.
AV Technical Manager - The role involves:
* Managing prep, servicing and maintenance of technical equipment
* Overseeing rack builds, system configuration and setup
* Working closely with project managers and technicians
* Supervising and supporting junior team members
* Managing firmware updates / system setup
* Reviewing schematics and suggesting improvements
* Keeping prep procedures and documentation up to date
* Supporting warehouse / technical operations when needed
* Making sure everything is tested, labelled and ready to go
* Maintaining safe working practices at all times
AV Technical Manager:
✅ Ideal background:
* Technical / AV / IT / Signals / Engineering / Broadcast / Network / Events
* Experience with racks, hardware, wiring, or system builds
* Good understanding of networks / signal flow / equipment setup
* Previous supervisory or team lead experience helpful
* Comfortable in a hands-on, fast moving environment
AV Technical Manager - What’s on offer:
* £40,000 – £47,500 salary
* Monday – Friday
* Strong team culture
* Excellent working environment
* Proper career opportunity
* Exciting technical projects
I love working roles like this because the skillset coming out of the military fits perfectly reliability, discipline, problem solving and getting the job done without drama
