Multiskilled Fire & Security Engineer

The patch runs from Reading down through Surrey and out into Sussex and Kent. Different buildings, different clients, different kit on nearly every one.

If you've been servicing the same handful of sites for a couple of years and you can predict the week before it starts, that's the difference here.

• Service and maintenance across fire alarms, CCTV, intruder alarms and access control.
• Fault finding on a wide range of systems. That's the part they care most about.
• Commissioning where it comes up.
• Service documentation done properly, and a share of the on-call rota.

You'd be managing your own diary and your own customers across the patch. It's a job that suits someone who'd rather be trusted than checked on.

The training is manufacturer-led, not a slideshow. If there's a system you've only half worked with, that's fixable here.

The team is growing, so there's a route beyond engineer for anyone who wants it. That's a real one rather than a line in an advert.

And the earnings are yours to move. Past £50,000 is normal for people who take the work on.
