Video Conferencing & Event Technology Specialist 80 - 100%

You have been asked to provide tech support for an important hybrid meeting involving the company’s board members. You performed a full tech run earlier and everything worked no problem. It is a closed meeting, so you are then asked to leave the room.

You start the call and leave. The meeting starts. Suddenly one of the board member’s assistants tell you that the board member is in the lobby and waiting to be admitted into the call. You were told that the lobby function had been disabled. The panel to admit them is in the room, and you are not allowed to enter. This is an important meeting. 

What is your reaction? Are you questioning if the call settings were correct? Can you quickly diagnose the issue and suggest a solution? 

Lot of scenarios will be running through your head very quickly, but fundamentally, are you calm? If yes, then you are the person we are looking for to join our team. This is an extreme, but a possible scenario, the day-to-day business isn’t like this because of the procedures, SOPs and backups we have in place. Can you help us maintain and evolve them?

The hours are regular but flexible, some events and calls start early, some will finish later. You will work in an environment that encourages innovation and gives you the opportunity to discuss and brainstorm assigned tasks end-to-end.
