Investigating faults and identifying practical, effective solutions.

Completing smaller installation works and system upgrades when required.

A full UK driving licence.
Industry qualifications such as FIA or City & Guilds would be advantageous, as would knowledge of BS 5839, NSI, BAFE and IP-based security systems.
An 18th Edition qualification would also be beneficial but is not essential.
What is on offer?

Basic salary of £34,000 to £40,000, dependent on experience.
