  • Bring strong audio expertise, including system design
  • Can manage multiple projects under pressure
  • Communicate clearly with clients and teams

  • Liaise across teams for seamless delivery
  • Lead on-site execution and act as senior escalation point
  • Mentor team members and identify training needs
  • Ensure compliance with H&S and RAMS
  • Drive innovation in audio and technical processes
  • Represent EC at meetings, trade shows, and industry events
