About Hy-Vee

At Hy-Vee, we believe the shortest distance between two people is a smile. We’re seeking professionals who bring proven skills, a desire to grow, and a commitment to work together in building a company that strives to make our customers’ lives easier, healthier and happier.

The Role and Why It’s Important

As Senior Manager, AV & Videography Services at Hy-Vee, you lead the day-to-day operations of the AV and video production function at the Ron Pearson Center, supporting both internal Hy-Vee events and external client events. You bring deep technical expertise in both live AV systems and video production, and you take pride in getting the details right — from a flawless sound check to a polished final edit. You coordinate a small team and collaborate closely with internal stakeholders and external clients alike. If you’re someone who takes ownership of your work, enjoys mentoring others, and finds satisfaction in a production that runs without a hitch, you’ll thrive in this role.

What You’ll Do

• Set up, operate, and troubleshoot full AV systems for corporate meetings, conferences, and live events, including audio, projection, LED lighting, and broadcast feeds.

• Serve as the lead technician on high-visibility internal and external events, including off-site productions.

• Configure and operate video switching systems for live production and streaming.

• Support hybrid events by integrating solutions for both in-person and remote audiences via platforms such as Zoom, Teams, or WebEx.

• Operate professional cinema and camera systems across a range of internal and contracted external events, including executive meetings, galas, and client productions.

• Lead all aspects of on-location and studio shoots — from pre-production planning through post-production delivery.

• Manage lighting setups to ensure broadcast-quality results in varied environments.

• Direct and coach on-camera talent, including executives and non-professional speakers, to achieve the best possible performance.

• Manage multi-camera productions and coordinate camera operators as needed and mentor AV staff and freelance crew on technical standards, best practices, and company workflows.

• Edit and deliver polished video content, including color grading, audio mixing, motion graphics, and captions.

• Maintain organized media libraries and archiving workflows to ensure assets are accessible and properly backed up.

• Partner with internal stakeholders, including executives and their assistants, to ensure a seamless presentation experience, including pre-event tech checks, run-of-show coordination, and on-site support.

• Serve as the primary AV point of contact for contracted external clients, coordinating event requirements, communicating expectations, and delivering a professional, client-ready experience.

• Collaborate with corporate teams to align video deliverables with brand standards and timelines.

• Manage equipment inventory, maintenance schedules, and procurement recommendations for cameras, lenses, audio gear, and AV hardware.

• Develop and document standard operating procedures for recurring production types.

• Evaluate and recommend emerging technology solutions to keep the department current.

• Maintain confidentiality with all company and client information.

Your Skills

• Commitment to the Hy-Vee mission and a willingness to promote the values of the company.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to communicate professionally with both internal stakeholders and external clients.

• Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to relate to and interact with a wide range of people — from internal employees and executives to external clients — in a friendly, professional manner.

• Expert-level proficiency with professional camera systems, video switchers, audio consoles, and broadcast AV equipment.

• Solid understanding of signal flow, audio/video routing, and broadcast standards.

• Experience managing or coordinating a small team, including staff and freelance crew.
