Director of Audio-Visual Services Cover Letter Sample

Dear Hiring Manager,

As a Director of Audio-Visual Services with 8 years of leadership and programming experience in broadcasting and events management settings, I apply with enthusiasm for this opportunity.

I am currently the Director of Audio-Visual Services at events and audio-visual consultancy DigiSound, where I direct 8 employees in the Client Broadcast and Event Project team for some of the world’s leading brands. Mirroring your requirements, I energetically lead the team to identify and plan goals, strategy, potential risks, and client needs, direct the setup process for all broadcast equipment, oversee engineering support throughout the project, ensure accurate diagnostics, troubleshoot and manage routine/preventive maintenance, and resolve any issues rapidly.

I possess a deep understanding of broadcasting, production and programming systems, equipment, and industry regulations. As well as strong configuration and supporting experience with audio systems, I am thoroughly familiar with the latest digital consoles (SC48, Vi, X32, M32, etc.) and continually research emerging audio technologies. In addition to my AV leadership and programming experience, I hold a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering and a Diploma in Studio Sound Engineering.

Due to budget cuts, my position has been made redundant. I am now seeking an equally stimulating opportunity where I can make a similarly meaningful impact. I have heard great things about your company from a friend who works there. I would be delighted to join such a fun team! 

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours sincerely,

Robert Wall
