IT Audio Visual Engineer
RCN UK HQ (London), 35 hours, permanent contract - start date from January 2025

Salary per annum: £36,705 plus London weighting of £5,094 per annum pro rata*

There is more to the RCN than you might think. We’re a trade union with a membership of over half a million nurses, midwives, nursing support workers and students. We support their practice, represent them, lobby on their behalf, and develop them. We exist to make a positive difference – to the working lives of our members and ultimately to standards in patient care. Our employees are drawn from many walks of life – we are nurses, marketers and communicators, administrators, IT professionals, policy and finance experts, lawyers… together we are so much more. We couldn’t do what we do without our people.

We're accredited with Investors in People Silver Standard. Our people are our greatest asset, and we want people who can contribute to our purpose in line with our values.

As our IT Audio Visual Engineer you’ll use your enthusiasm, your positivity and your customer service skills to deliver an exceptional service to our members, staff and clients.

In this varied role every day will be different and filled with possibilities. You will get involved in anything from live, virtual and hybrid events to filming and editing things such as interviews and social media content. We'll look to you to manage and maintain our meeting rooms and be a point of contact for staff throughout the organisation and external clients putting on events in our venue. It's a great way to build on your skills and experience and develop your potential.

To join us you’ll need technical events skills and, ideally, a background in a relevant area such as video production.

Whatever your background, you'll be efficient, accurate and show a real customer focus in all you do.

To succeed at the Royal College of Nursing all you need to do is think bigger, better and brighter. And with an attitude like that, anything’s possible.

What we offer you

We expect you to look after our members, staff and external clients. And we expect you to be rewarded for it. We offer an impressive range of benefits, a broad range of learning development opportunities and an award-winning health and wellbeing programme. We offer annual leave up to 32 days plus bank holidays and three additional days for the Christmas break plus generous maternity, adoption, paternity, and shared parental leave packages.

*We offer a competitive pay structure with annual pay progression until you reach the top of the salary scale. We normally offer new employees the first point of the salary range, although you may be able to negotiate a higher starting salary depending on your skills, experience and current salary.

We are a diverse organisation and understand everyone has different needs and many of our employees enjoy flexible working enabling them to deliver results whilst having a good work life balance. Our hybrid working model allows for up to 60% of your working time to be carried out from home. At least 40% of your working time will be spent working in person.
