Aurora has expanded its project management team with the appointment of Ben Taylor. Mr Taylor has been named as Project Manager at the company's West London operation.

Ben has numerous years of experience within the lighting industry, in both 'hands-on' and customer support roles. Having graduated from the Central School of Speech and Drama, he gained experience early in his career by working as a freelance lighting technician on a variety of production types, from panto to film.

After three years with Trafalgar Lighting, Ben joined equipment supplier AC Entertainment Technologies Ltd, where he progressed to a Senior Technical Sales position.

Throughout his career, Ben has remained focussed on entertainment production, maintaining a keen interest in the equipment and techniques employed within the television, broadcast, film and live event industries.

In his new role as Project Manager at Aurora, he will be responsible for liaising with Lighting Designers, Gaffers and Production Managers to offer support and advice on all aspects of the production process.

He said: "Aurora has a fantastic reputation for service and equipment along with a great ethos and working attitude. It's a great team and I am delighted to be a part of it."

Nick Edwards, Managing Director, Aurora, added: "Ben has not only a proven in depth equipment knowledge but he also understands the importance of strong customer support. It's a pleasure to welcome him to Aurora and we're looking forward to putting his Project Management skills to work."
