• Preparing and clearly labelling equipment for engineer collections.
• Resolving any issues with job requests or returned equipment.
• Cleaning, testing and re-stocking AV equipment.
• Helping with warehouse administration and supporting AV projects when required.
• Keeping the warehouse clean, safe and well organised.
• Assisting the UK Warehouse Manager with warehouse and fleet-related tasks.
• Opening and securing the warehouse when needed.
• Providing basic support for company vehicles at the Reading site.
• Occasionally transporting equipment between our Reading and Hertford locations.
