About the Role

Talon Audio Visual is a boutique live event production agency that supports high-profile tech, academic, and nonprofit events with AV production, streaming, networking, and accessibility services across the country. 

We’re looking for a reliable, detail-oriented assistant to help manage our AV equipment warehouse, prep and organize show gear, and handle outbound shipping for both AV projects and One Caption Box rentals. This is a hands-on, flexible part-time role perfect for someone interested in tech, events, or logistics.

This role is the physical counterpart to our back-office operations: while the Production Coordinator handles scheduling, logistics, and documentation, the Warehouse Assistant ensures gear is ready to go, packed, and out the door.
