In an industry that is largely dependent on, and driven by, technology, the need to keep ahead of the latest developments and employ them to maximum effect is critical. The development of technology is relentless, and as a result it is all too easy to become swept up in its advance. RG Jones policy is to take a global view and be selective about which products are going to provide a competitive edge for more than a few months, suit our customer’s requirements and maximise return on investment.
Many customers can be wary of the world of professional audio and visual. The right attitude, communication skills and the ability to gain the trust of those who may not fully understand, coupled with an ability talk to those who do, is a vital skill.
RG Jones already has an established team of core staff and values. The company strives to employ those people best equipped to choose the right solutions.
RG Jones reputation is built on providing tailor made integrated solutions using the resources expected of a company that has evolved over the last 97 years. Our designers have extensive knowledge and we have carefully balanced a range of backgrounds to meet the requirements of the different sectors within the market. Whatever your requirement, RG Jones can provide a complete solution.
RG Jones is the oldest continuous trading sound company in the UK and one of the oldest three in the world. We believe that our past should be the foundation for our present and our future, and we endeavour to maintain the high standards set by our founder, Ronald Godfrey Jones in 1926. We work hard to ensure that our equipment hire and our sales and installations departments reflect this.
“It is the long history of humankind (and animal kind, too) that those who learned to collaborate
and improvise most effectively have prevailed.” -Charles Darwin
Effective collaboration in the workplace is a practice that requires building trust and a commitment to the systems put in place. As an independent SME, we could fully control and easily adopt new technologies now available to establish a collaborative culture.
This last year has forced companies to adjust to working virtually. RG Jones had already recognised the benefits, and how we could improve our efficiency and communication. We invested in leading software-based IP phones systems, and we continued to expand into online software (compliant with ISO/IEC 27001) for email, storage and product/service management.
We strive to offer our employees, clients and suppliers the opportunity to participate and benefit from a wide body of knowledge gained from over 95 years of experience. With the right tools, our teams can achieve the highest levels of cooperation. We look for ways to cultivate work/life balance and reduce travel where possible.
