A highly respected AV integration business is looking to appoint a senior technical leader to take ownership of engineering quality, technical standards, and project delivery performance across its residential and commercial AV division.

This is a key leadership role within the business, ideal for a Lead Engineer, Senior AV Engineer or Engineering Manager who wants to move beyond individual project delivery and help shape how engineering is delivered company wide.

This is not a corporate QA or compliance management role.

The business is specifically looking for someone from a professional AV integration background with strong hands on technical knowledge across high end AV, smart home and integrated technology systems.

The Role

You will act as the senior technical authority within the engineering team, ensuring projects are delivered to the highest possible standard from installation through to commissioning and handover.

You'll work closely with Project Managers, Engineers, Programmers and Leadership teams to improve technical consistency, raise standards, support engineers and resolve complex integration challenges.

This role combines leadership, mentoring, technical escalation and continuous improvement across the engineering function.

Key Responsibilities

• Defining and maintaining engineering standards across all projects
• Overseeing commissioning quality and system performance
• Acting as the primary escalation point for complex technical issues
• Supporting and mentoring engineers across multiple live projects
• Improving installation quality, documentation and delivery consistency
• Supporting engineering resource planning alongside project teams
• Conducting technical reviews, testing oversight and quality checks
• Providing technical support remotely and on site when required
• Assisting with project planning, design reviews and handovers
• Driving continuous improvement across engineering processes

What They Are Looking For

• Lutron HomeWorks / QSX
• Crestron systems
• Control4
• Cisco networking
• VLANs and enterprise WiFi infrastructure
• AV over IP systems including NVX and Dante
• Residential and commercial AV systems
• CCTV and integrated smart technologies

Experience with 2N, VoIP systems, Texecom or wider security integration would also be beneficial.

Ideal Background

• Senior AV Engineer
• Lead AV Engineer
• Engineering Manager
• Technical Manager
• AV Commissioning Lead
• Smart Home Technical Lead

You should also possess

• Excellent troubleshooting and fault finding ability
• Strong leadership and mentoring skills
• High attention to detail and pride in technical quality
• Ability to manage multiple technical priorities simultaneously
• Strong communication skills across engineers, project teams and clients
• A genuine passion for delivering systems properly

Package

• Up to 50,000 pa basic salary, negotiable depending on experience
• 28 days holiday plus birthday off
• Paid industry certifications and technical training
• Long term progression into senior leadership
• Collaborative and highly technical engineering environment
• 5,000 long service bonus scheme
• Annual loyalty bonuses
• Fully paid company events and experiences

Why This Role

This is a rare opportunity to move into a genuine technical leadership role where your experience directly shapes engineering quality across an entire business.

You'll still stay close to the technology, but your focus becomes improving standards, supporting engineers, solving complex technical challenges, and influencing how projects are delivered at a company level.
