AV Engineer, Early Career with AV Installation Experience + IT Experience, London E1 Based, Available from 24th September 2012, Permanent

This candidate got in touch with me last week. He is in the early stages of his AV career. He has worked hard to break into audio visual systems integration following early experience in mainstream commercial IT installation/support roles.

This candidate has a genuine passion for AV and has been unlucky in that his current employer is restructuring just after he has joined them. I feel that he will quickly grow to be an invaluable technical team member for the right integrator or service provider.

An AV Engineer with experience working for a large AV integrator on a contract basis (initially 3 months extended to 6 months) where he was performing 1^st and 2^nd fix installations into corporate sites in London’s financial centre. Following completion of the contract, he accepted a permanent position with another AV & VC integrator in June 2012; unfortunately the company are now restructuring and this candidate has been let go on a last-in first-out basis and will be available to start a new role from Monday 24^th September, or at one week’s notice. He previously worked in IT engineering.

This candidate has experience of installing a variety of AV technologies and infrastructure including video conferencing systems (Cisco/Tandberg & Polycom), Crestron & AMX control systems (installation but not programming), ceiling and wall mounts, various types of cabling including terminations, amplifiers, switches and displays. He also has some experience rack building, commissioning and trouble-shooting the installed system.

This candidate is actively looking for a permanent opportunity where he can build on his existing AV experience and build a long term career with a stable employer. He lives in London (E1) and is happy to travel as required. His salary was £23K + fuel expenses, but he is flexible on this for the right opportunity. He is available for interview immediately.
