AV & VC Installation Engineer, Kent Based (Easy Access to London), Strong Corporate Installation Background, Available Immediately, Permanent

I have been speaking with this candidate for a couple of weeks now; he enjoys Audio Visual technology on a personal level and loves his working day, with AV installation being his dream job. Unfortunately he has just today had confirmation of redundancy (the threat of which was why he contacted me in the first place) and so now needs to find a new role ASAP. I believe that his current employer’s loss will be someone else’s gain.

This candidate is an experienced AV Installer currently working (until today) for a systems integrator, where has enjoyed installing Crestron, AMX and Extron based integrated systems for major corporates in London. He has installed the network infrastructure, racks (including rack build), control systems, VC endpoints and Codecs (Polycom and Cisco/Tandberg), displays and projectors, as well as digital signage and IP TV systems. A technically confident installer who prides himself on the quality and speed of his work; he has been requested by name by several clients whilst in his current role.

Redundant with immediate effect, as such this candidate is actively looking for a new opportunity. He is available at short notice (he can start tomorrow in the right role), he is looking for a permanent opportunity offering good career development in the long term. He lives in the Gravesend area of Kent, with easy access to Central London and is happy to travel as the role requires. His current salary is £22.5K and he is looking to improve this to around the £25K level, but is flexible and appreciates that he needs to prove himself to a new employer. He is a British national with full right to work in the UK.

AV Installation Engineer, London Based, Available June 11th 2012, Permanent

This candidate is a little less experienced than most of the people we speak to here at AV Jobs; he is at an early stage of his career, but has already picked up some good AV skills and has worked in The City on high end installations, and proven his worth on a large project there. It would be great to help him find an opportunity where he can further develop and also reward his employer with dedication and enthusiasm for AV.

Currently working as an AV installation engineer on a contract basis for a top systems integrator on a multi-storey AV and VC refit for an investment bank  in The City of London. He has worked on this contract for the last 9 months and in that time has installed a wide range of AV and VC equipment to first and second fix stages, including projectors, screens, displays, racks, Crestron switches, Extron switches, Polycom VC endpoints and associated cabling. He has also pulled and terminated various types of cables across multiple floors of the installation.

           

This candidate is looking for a long term opportunity to work in the AV industry with an employer that can make use of his current skills and also allow him the opportunity to further develop. He has already passed the Infocomm CTS essentials course and hols a valid CSCS card as well as training in working at heights and general health & safety. He is based in East London and has a full UK driving license. He is currently earning the equivalent of £24K on his current contract and is looking for a similar level in his next role, although his main priority is a long term opportunity with a genuine career path.
