Description:
Senior Fire & Security Engineer, Gloucestershire - £37,000 to £43,000 DOE
Permanent | Field Based
We are recruiting for an experienced Senior Fire & Security Engineer to join an established and growing business covering Gloucestershire.
This is a genuinely multi-discipline role for someone who is confident working independently across both fire and security systems. You will be trusted to handle complex service and fault-finding work without needing regular technical support, while also acting as a point of guidance for less experienced engineers.
This is primarily a service, maintenance and reactive fault-finding role, rather than a large-project installation position.
The role will include
* Servicing and maintaining fire and security systems
* Reactive fault finding and breakdown response
* Diagnosing complex faults independently
* Working across addressable fire alarm systems
* Servicing and fault finding on intruder alarms
* CCTV and access control maintenance
* Completing remedial and like-for-like repair work
* Supporting and guiding less experienced engineers when required
* Completing accurate service documentation
* Liaising professionally with customers
* Working across a range of residential, local authority, education and commercial sites
* Participating in an on-call rota
We are looking for
* Strong experience across both fire and security systems
* Good service and maintenance background
* Strong independent fault-finding ability
* Experience with at least two fire alarm platforms
* Experience with at least two intruder alarm platforms
* Confidence working with CCTV and access control
* The ability to work without regular technical backup
* Experience supporting or mentoring less experienced engineers
* Full UK driving licence
Experience with systems such as Advanced, Kentec, Gent, Morley, C-Tec, Hochiki, Texecom, Galaxy, Pyronix and Risco would be useful.
Relevant FIA, FESS, ECS or electrical qualifications would be advantageous.
