Job Title: Fire & Security Project Engineer
Salary: £42,000 to £52,000 DOE + Vehicle + Benefits
This is a great move for a senior engineer who wants to stay hands on for now but start taking on more ownership, more responsibility and a clear path toward project management.
You'll join a respected specialist working across high end residential and commercial security installations. These are prestige environments where quality, detail and client experience matter. The role suits someone who enjoys delivering technical excellence but is also hungry to progress into planning, coordination and small project ownership.
The Role
You'll lead on the installation, commissioning and support of modern fire and security systems across the South East. As you settle in, you'll begin taking on project duties including surveys, small project coordination, client updates and helping shape delivery plans.
Your responsibilities will include:
Installing and configuring intruder, CCTV and access control systems
Commissioning, testing and fault finding to a high standard
Overseeing junior engineers and setting the tone for quality on site
Supporting with surveys, documentation, RAMS and quoting assistance
Acting as a trusted on site contact for clients and contractors
Taking ownership of smaller works with a view to growing into full project delivery
What You Need To Bring
Strong experience in fire and security installations
Confident working with intruder systems, CCTV and access control
Comfortable leading on site delivery and guiding others when required
Great documentation, planning and communication skills
A professional client facing approach
Full UK driving licence
Ambition to move into project management, not just stay on the tools
Why This Role Stands Out
You'll still get to do the hands on work you enjoy, but you'll also be mentored toward project management. You'll learn how to run programmes, coordinate resources, prepare documentation and manage clients. Over time you'll move into leading full project lifecycles.
This is a strong step for someone who wants progression without losing their technical edge.
