AV Install Engineer

Alecto Recruitment

Remote-friendly

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.
