Due to the recent win of a new, large contract, an exciting opportunity has arisen for a Service Administrator to join a specialist fire and security systems business based in Burgess Hill. Working as part of the Service team, the Service Administrator will play a key role in coordinating fire alarm engineers, managing service schedules and ensuring clients receive a high level of service at all times. This is a busy, desk‑based role requiring strong organisation, clear communication and excellent attention to detail.

• Booking and confirming planned preventative maintenance visits in line with contract frequencies

• Managing engineers’ diaries, including rescheduling appointments due to cancellations, sickness or delays
