AV warehouse operation
, ensuring that every piece of kit is show-ready, on time, and perfectly prepped for world-class live productions.

Your Responsibilities Will Include
- Leading and mentoring a small team of warehouse technicians, ensuring quality, efficiency, and safety in every task.
- Managing stock control and equipment tracking, including regular audits and discrepancy resolution.
- Collaborating with project managers and hire desks to assess kit availability, plan workloads, and manage subhires when required.

- Overseeing the loading and unloading of vehicles, ensuring equipment is handled safely and labelled accurately.
- Representing the warehouse team in pre-production meetings, offering valuable insights on kit prep timelines and logistics.
- Championing continuous improvement, looking for smarter ways to work, reduce costs, and improve stock accuracy.
What You'll Bring
We're looking for someone who's got both
technical know-how and leadership flair
:
- Proven experience in a technical prep or warehouse supervisory role within the AV or live events industry.
- Solid understanding of audio, lighting, video, rigging, or staging equipment.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines.
- Experience with inventory systems and digital tools (spreadsheets, warehouse management software).
- A calm, solutions-focused approach when things get busy.
- Willingness to pitch in when needed — including the occasional evening or weekend.
Why Join
This is your chance to be part of a passionate, professional team that powers unforgettable live experiences. You'll work with premium AV equipment, well-respected clients, and a company that values initiative, teamwork, and technical excellence.
If you're ready to take ownership of a fast-paced, high-impact role in live event production —
we'd love to hear from you.
