Visual Acuity Broadens Skill Base with New Hire
Independent technology consultancy Visual Acuity has appointed Damian Andrews to the position of Lead Consultant, Project Development. Andrews brings a fresh perspective to the consultancy with a wealth of experience working in various project roles ranging from client user, owner, operator and integrator.
This key role has both internal and customer-facing dimensions, as Blair Parkin, Managing Director, Visual Acuity, explains, "The technological scope of our work continues to develop, as does our geographical reach - we are currently working on projects as far afield as Asia, the Middle East, the US and Europe. Damian will lead and champion our customers' interests and provide advice and support to architects, building engineers, vendors and other service providers on each project."
In addition to project-management expertise, Andrews also brings specialist skills in stage lighting and production to the party -significantly broadening Visual Acuity's range of technological competencies as the diversity of the company's customer base continues to grow.
Andrews' industry experience dates back to the mid-1990s when, while studying for a Diploma in Audio Visual Design, he worked in the technical department of the UK's Middlesbrough Theatre. He subsequently studied Electrical Engineering for Theatre, before embarking on a large-scale musical as production electrician and working as Company Stage Manager for the Carl Rosa Opera Company. Several years travelling the world as a technical manager in the cruise-ship industry culminated in the appointment as Senior Production Manager on the Queen Mary 2 overseeing the operation of multiple and varied entertainment spaces.
