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.
