Job Overview

As a Fire & Security Installation Engineer, you will install and configure fire and security systems, using technical drawings and practical site knowledge to deliver reliable installations. You will work with system designs, schematics and CAD information, coordinating installation tasks and checking that equipment is fitted and connected correctly.

Duties

• Review system designs, CAD drawings and schematics to plan installation work and identify the equipment and tools required.
• Install and connect fire and security equipment using hand tools and power tools, applying sound mechanical and electrical practices.
• Check completed installations against the design, identify issues and carry out appropriate adjustments.
• Coordinate with colleagues and other trades on site to support safe, organised progress. Your impact: accurate installation helps customers rely on functioning fire and security systems and gives colleagues confidence in the completed work.

Experience

• Required: Practical mechanical knowledge, confidence using hand tools and power tools, and the ability to interpret schematics and follow system designs.
• Preferred: Electrical experience, construction experience, and familiarity with CAD or system design, which can support efficient installation and coordination on site.

This is not a building site role, and will involve working in many different premises, some for one day at a time for small works, others for one week complete a fire alarm install or alike.

All specialist tools and PPE will be provided, and most importantly, we give the engineer the time they need to complete the works.
