We’re looking for an AV Hire & Events Account Manager to join our London team. This is a desk‑based, client‑facing role focused on handling incoming enquiries, putting together AV solutions, and managing projects from enquiry through to delivery.

    Develop your own portfolio and identify opportunities to grow revenue
  • Problem Solving:
    Deal with issues quickly and practically when they arise
  • Communication:
    Be the main point of contact for your clients throughout the process

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience in AV hire, events, or exhibitions
  • Good understanding of AV equipment and setups
  • Someone who is commercially aware, not just technical
  • Strong communication and organisation skills
  • Able to work in a fast‑paced environment and manage multiple jobs
  • A hands‑on, proactive attitude

Ideal Background

  • Previous experience in an AV hire desk / events office role
  • OR a technician looking to move into a more office‑based role

What We Offer

  • A growing, supportive team environment
  • Opportunity to work on a wide range of live events, exhibitions, and projects

Join us and be part of a team delivering high‑quality AV across some great projects.
