+ Look for ways to continuously improve our service offering and strive for global alignment
+ Troubleshoot sophisticated audio, video, network switching and control systems problems
+ Meet with stakeholders to discuss audio, lighting, and video/content requirements
+ Manage vendor activities and maintain both new and existing vendor relationships to ensure fulfillment of their contractual obligations
**You’ll need to have:**

+ Experience with AV event coordination, working across teams and skill sets to ensure each and every event is produced effectively
+ Experience in setup, test, calibration and commissioning equipment and devices as required to build a fully functional AV system in a corporate environment
