* Liaise professionally with clients to confirm requirements and provide reassurance on-site
* Contribute to post-event reports and continuous improvement feedback
Video/Audio Conferencing
* Set up and support day-to-day video and audio conferencing sessions
* Carry out checks and certification of relocated or newly installed systems under guidance
* Perform first-line diagnosis of conferencing issues and escale when needed
* Support rollout and testing of conferencing software and firmware updates
Qualifications

* Clear communication and professional presence in a customer-facing environment
* Reliability, adaptability, and attention to detail
