  • Operate equipment during meetings or events and respond quickly to reasonable technical requests.
  • Maintain equipment inventories, report damage and ensure cables and devices are stored safely after use.

Requirements and Qualifications

  • Technical training or hands-on experience with audio visual, IT support or event technology is beneficial.
  • Familiarity with common sound, display and meeting-room equipment.
  • Ability to troubleshoot systematically and explain technical issues in clear language.
  • Flexible scheduling and service-oriented communication may be needed during events.
  • Careful handling of equipment, attention to safety and reliable documentation.

Professional Approach

The technician helps events run smoothly by preparing equipment in advance, testing key functions and remaining responsive when technical needs change. Clear handovers and reliable follow-up help the wider team maintain continuity. Candidates should be prepared to explain how their experience, training or transferable skills relate to the duties and how they would contribute to a professional, service-focused team.
