The Role
An exciting opportunity is available for a Senior Security Engineer to join an established and growing technical team in the North West. This is a predominantly security-focused service role, covering servicing, planned maintenance, fault-finding, repairs and small works rather than large-scale installations.
You will work directly with customers, taking ownership of technical issues and ensuring all works are completed to a high standard. The role would suit an experienced engineer who is confident working independently, managing their own workload and delivering a professional customer experience.
Key Responsibilities
* Carry out service, maintenance, fault-finding and repair works across a range of security systems.
* Complete small works and modifications, ensuring systems are left fully operational and compliant.
* Attend reactive callouts when required as part of a 1-in-5 standby rota.
* Complete service documentation, reports and relevant paperwork accurately and promptly.
* Build strong customer relationships while managing expectations and delivering a high standard of workmanship.
Experience & Skills
* Ideally 3+ years' experience working with security systems, with strong technical and fault-finding ability.
* Solid experience across security systems, servicing, maintenance, repairs and small works.
* Basic fire alarm experience is required, although extensive fire experience is not necessary.
* A relevant vocational qualification and/or manufacturer training would be advantageous.
* Excellent communication skills, a professional appearance and the ability to organise and manage your own workload are essential.
Working Pattern & Call-Out
* The standard working week is 40 hours, with availability required between approximately 06:30 and 18:30.
* Engineers participate in a 1-in-5 standby rota, covering the full week when on standby.
* Standby allowance is £200 per week, with callouts additionally paid at the applicable overtime rate.
* Callouts are relatively infrequent, with engineers typically attending no more than once or twice in a week when on standby.
* Overtime is paid at basic rate Monday–Friday, time-and-a-half Saturday and double time Sunday, with Bank Holidays paid at normal rate plus a day back in lieu.
Package & Benefits
* £40,000 basic salary, plus door-to-door travel paid in line with company policy.
* Company estate vehicle, fuel card and private mileage.
* Paid overtime, callout allowance and customer-focused incentives.
* 24 days' holiday, plus company contributory pension scheme.
* Company workwear, laptop, mobile phone, testing equipment and plant provided.
