Basic understanding of camera systems and a desire to maintain industry-leading gear to the highest standards.
Ability to handle significant manual labour, remain on your feet for long periods, and navigate large commercial spaces.
A polite, helpful demeanour with the ability to remain calm and professional in a fast-paced environment.
Flexibility to work overtime or remain on-call during peak production seasons to meet client deadlines.
