Fire & Security Systems Engineer
Location: Bromsgrove
Salary: Starting at £35k – £40k per annum (depending on experience)
Job Type: Permanent, Full Time
About the Role
This role involves field‑based, lone working Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm with a degree of flexibility required to support operational needs and deliver excellent service to customers.

As a Fire & Security Engineer, you will be responsible for installing and maintaining a wide range of fire and security systems, continuously developing your knowledge across different technologies.
