AV Install Engineer
Alecto Recruitment
AV INSTALLER
£35,000 - £45,000 + Progression + High-End Projects
Hertfordshire (Projects across London & Home Counties)
The Opportunity
This is a rare chance to join a growing smart home business right at the point of expansion.
You'll be working directly with the owner, an experienced installer with a strong reputation in the high-end residential space, who is now scaling the business after years of delivering projects solo.
If you're currently feeling like just another number in a larger company, this gives you something very different, real ownership, real impact, and the chance to grow with the business as it builds.
The Role
You'll be hands-on across premium residential smart home projects, supporting installs from first fix through to final handover:
- First and second fix cabling
- Installation of Control4 systems (controllers, touchscreens, keypads)
- Installation of Lutron lighting systems (keypads, modules)
- TV and audio installs with clean, high-end finishes
- Rack building, wiring, and labelling
- WiFi systems and home networking
- Fault finding and service visits
- Running smaller installs independently once up to speed
- Using a laptop on-site for system checks and basic configuration
You won't be expected to programme systems, but you should be confident working alongside them.
What They're Looking For
This is a key hire, not just another installer.
- Proven experience in smart homes or residential AV
- Experience with Control4 and/or Lutron is a strong advantage
- Good understanding of structured cabling and basic networking
- Comfortable using a laptop on-site for testing and coordination
- High attention to detail and pride in your work
- Able to work independently and take initiative
- Professional and comfortable working in high-end homes
- Full UK driving licence
What You'll Get
- £35,000 - £45,000 salary depending on experience
- Direct exposure to high-spec residential projects
- The chance to work side-by-side with the business owner
- A genuine opportunity to grow as the company expands
- Training on modern smart home technologies
- Pension and holiday entitlement
- Tools and equipment provided
- Van provided after settling in
Why This Role Stands Out
You're not joining a big team.
You're helping build one.
For the right person, this is a genuine opportunity to step up, take more responsibility, and be part of something that's growing, not something that's already built.
