Role Summary
The Commercial AV Project Foreman combines the advanced technical capability of a Level 3 Technician with the field leadership responsibilities of a Lead Technician. This role is responsible for leading on-site installation teams, ensuring quality execution of complex AV systems, and serving as the primary field liaison between the installation crew, Project Manager, clients, general contractors, and IT teams.
The Project Foreman must be capable of independently commissioning complete AV systems, configuring control and DSP platforms, troubleshooting at a system level, and managing the daily workflow of field teams. This is not just a senior installer — it is a field leadership role that directly impacts project outcomes, client satisfaction, and team development.
This role requires 3–5+ years of commercial AV installation experience with demonstrated leadership ability.
