Bandit Lites Nashville office continues its growth in Gen8 with several new hires including Michael Holmes as Bandit’s Chain Hoist Technician.
Holmes began his entertainment lighting career as a rigging technician working in the steel isle. He later joined a lighting company and was certified as a motor technician. At Bandit Holmes will be responsible for all the electric chain hoists, ensuring they’re maintained and able to provide safe and operational motors for Bandit’s clients and crew. He’ll also maintain the Bandit custom motor control system and power distribution for motors.
Bandit Lites prides itself on offering more than temporary job positions. Bandit’s team members are valued professionals with year-round payroll stability, backed by comprehensive, company-funded health insurance, retirement plans, and performance-based incentives. But what truly sets us apart is our commitment to creating a respectful, supportive workplace where every individual and every position matters. This culture of care and long-term investment is what drives Bandit’s continued success and keeps us leading the industry, year after year.
“I never thought I would find a true career, not just another job,” said Holmes. “Working on electric chain hoists is something I love doing and working with an employer who will actually take care of their employees is amazing. I have been blessed in so many ways when Bandit Lites gave me the opportunity to be a part of their team. If I had to choose one word to sum up how I feel to be a part of this team, that word would be ‘honored.’”
“Michael is such a great addition to our shop,” said Bandit Lites Technical Service Manager, Sophie Phillips. “We were worried about finding a replacement for our long-beloved motor tech Rich when he retired, but Michael came in and blew us out of the water! His want to learn, his unwavering drive to help, and his years of knowledge is just awe inspiring! He’s an amazing addition to our team and I’m excited to see him grow with us.”
