Job description

Technical Event Coordinator and AV Shop Manager

Red Tree Productions is not a traditional AV company. We are a small, highly experienced audiovisual firm that specializes exclusively in small and mid‑sized conferences across Canada. For more than 15 years, we have quietly designed and delivered high‑quality conference productions for associations, nonprofits, and professional organizations, producing audio visual for approximately 60 to 75 conferences each year.

We do not operate a rental shop and we are not open to the public. Instead, we focus entirely on conference production, using our own custom‑built, plug‑and‑play AV kits and a repeatable, systems‑driven approach. This allows us to deliver consistent results, reduce friction for both clients and crews, and maintain a very high production standard with a lean, experienced team.

While our foundations are well established, we are very much in a growth phase. We are expanding into new markets, formalizing systems, and scaling how we operate, all while maintaining the hands‑on care and attention that long‑term clients value. Our approach challenges many conventions of the legacy AV industry, and we are intentional about doing things differently and better.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on variety and responsibility. You will not be on‑site, but you will play a central role in the business. If you are sharp, highly organized, and enjoy working closely with clients and internal teams, this is a front‑row opportunity to contribute to a company in active expansion mode.

Role Overview

This is a brand new role at Red Tree Productions. It is a hybrid position combining technical event coordination with AV shop management, with a real opportunity to help define the role, build systems, and improve how we operate as the company grows.

A core responsibility of this role is booking crews and managing the technician roster for events. You will ensure the right people are scheduled, briefed, and prepared for each conference.

You will also prepare complete technical coordination packages for our onsite Lead Technicians and run our AV shop in Guelph. This includes prepping and testing gear, maintaining standardized conference kits, packing trucks, and ensuring everything leaving the shop is ready for deployment.

At times, you may also support conferences on site, including travel during slower periods. Candidates must live in or near the Guelph, Ontario region.

  • Comfortable preparing technical briefs that crews can use to execute independently
