- Assist with equipment quality-control processes and coordinate with the Video Director and warehouse teams regarding damaged, missing, or service-related equipment.
- Support the training and development of video technicians and other team members as needed.
- Monitor multiple projects simultaneously and proactively communicate concerns that could affect equipment availability, warehouse preparation, or project execution.
- Perform additional duties as assigned.
