Field Engineer - Networking & CCTV

Fed up with being stuck in one place and want a hands‑on role out on site?
Do you enjoy practical work where you can physically see what you’ve built?
Looking for a role where you’re trusted to get on with things — not micromanaged?

This is a full‑time, permanent Engineer role, focused on installing cabling, CCTV, and network infrastructure across residential and construction sites.

You’ll be part of a small, close‑knit team delivering high‑quality installs, with the opportunity to build your knowledge of networking over time — without being expected to know everything from day one.

You’ll be field‑based, working across sites primarily in and around Coventry.

• Regular travel to sites, including projects in London
• Occasional overnight stays may be required
• Working hours can vary depending on site constraints (e.g. earlier finishes on building sites)

• A basic salary of £26,500 – £30,000
• Clear, transparent expectations from day one
• No overtime culture — time off in lieu instead
• The opportunity to develop your technical skills over time
• A stable role with a practical, supportive team

You’ll be working on‑site installing and supporting network and security systems.

Your role will include:

• Pulling and installing Cat5/Cat6 cabling
• Installing CCTV cameras and related equipment
• Setting up racks, cabinets and network hardware
• Assisting with connecting devices to networks (training provided where needed)
• Working in high‑end residential properties and on building sites
• Adapting plans on‑site and solving problems as they arise
• Maintaining a clean, professional standard of work at all times

Ideally, you’ll:

• Be hands‑on and comfortable working in a physical, site‑based role
• Have some experience with cabling, CCTV or similar installations
• Be presentable and professional (client‑facing environment)
• Be able to think on your feet and adapt when plans change
• Be based within a reasonable commute of Coventry (ideally 20–30 minutes)

Nice to have (but not essential):

• Basic understanding of networks
• Experience working on construction sites
• Willingness to travel and occasionally stay away overnight

If you’re looking for somewhere you’ll never be micromanaged, this is it.

This is a business that:

• Trusts people to do their job
• Values practical work and common sense over process
• Supports learning over time rather than expecting perfection on day one

You’ll be treated like an adult and supported to succeed — not managed to death.
