Fire Alarm Installation Engineers – Kent, Essex & London

£250 Day Rate | £300 Night Rate | Long-Term Ongoing Projects

We are currently looking to expand our team of experienced Fire Alarm Installation Engineers for a number of long-term, ongoing projects across Kent, Essex and London, with work starting over the coming weeks and continuing for the foreseeable future.

The projects are working on behalf of a well-known national supermarket, so engineers will be working on live customer-facing sites. As a result, a professional, polite and respectful attitude is essential.

We are looking for reliable engineers who take pride in their work, can work independently and as part of a team, and are looking for regular, ongoing work.

The Role

The role will involve the installation of fire alarm systems on new and refurbishment projects, including:

  • Fire alarm cable installation and cable pulling
  • First fix installation
  • Second fix installation
  • Installing fire alarm devices, interfaces, sounders and ancillary equipment
  • Containment and associated installation works
  • Working from electrical/fire alarm drawings
  • Reading, understanding and marking up drawings
  • Identifying cable routes and installation requirements
  • Testing installation work where required
  • Fault finding and rectification of installation issues
  • Working alongside other engineers and site teams
  • Maintaining a clean, safe and professional working environment
  • Following site RAMS, health & safety procedures and client requirements
  • Working professionally around members of the public and supermarket staff

Working Hours – Day Shift

Monday to Friday

8:30am – 4:30pm

Engineers must be signed in and on site ready to work at 8:30am.

  • 1-hour unpaid break
  • 7 hours paid working time
  • £250 per day

Alternatively, engineers who prefer a 30-minute break can work until 4:00pm:

  • 30-minute unpaid break
  • 7 hours paid working time
  • £250 per day

Night Works

The role will also include regular night work, with approximately 50% of the work being carried out on night shifts.

Sunday Night

4:00pm – 12:00am

  • 1-hour unpaid break
  • 7 hours paid working time
  • £300 per night

Monday – Thursday Nights

10:00pm – 5:00am

Engineers must be signed in on site and ready to work at 10:00pm.

  • 30-minute unpaid break
  • 6.5 hours paid working time
  • £300 per night

Essential Requirements

Applicants must have solid, hands-on fire alarm installation experience.

You will need to be confident with:

  • Fire alarm cable pulling
  • First fix
  • Second fix
  • Working from drawings
  • Reading and interpreting installation drawings
  • Marking up drawings accurately
  • Working independently without constant supervision
  • Working safely on live commercial/customer sites
  • Working as part of a larger installation team
  • Maintaining a professional attitude at all times

Qualifications, Cards & Equipment

Essential:

  • Proven fire alarm installation experience
  • CSCS card
  • Own hand tools suitable for fire alarm installation work
  • Good understanding of site health & safety requirements
  • Ability to read and mark up drawings
  • Reliable transport / ability to travel to site

Desirable:

  • SSSTS
  • FIA qualifications
  • Experience with addressable fire alarm systems
  • Experience working on large commercial or retail projects
  • Previous supermarket/live-site experience
  • IPAF

IPAF can be organised for the right candidates where required.

SSSTS is not essential, but would be a strong advantage, particularly for engineers who have previous experience taking responsibility for site activities or supervising other engineers.

The Type of Engineer We Are Looking For

We are looking for engineers who are:

  • Reliable and punctual
  • Experienced and competent
  • Able to work from drawings
  • Able to work independently
  • Comfortable working nights
  • Flexible regarding day and night shifts
  • Professional when dealing with customers and members of the public
  • Safety-conscious
  • Clean and tidy in their work
  • Good communicators
  • Able to work as part of a team
  • Looking for long-term, ongoing work

Because these are live supermarket sites, engineers will be representing our company in front of the client, supermarket staff and members of the public. A professional, courteous and respectful attitude is therefore a key requirement.

Location & Travel

Projects will be located throughout:

Kent | Essex | London

There will be multiple sites and ongoing projects, so the ability to travel between sites is required.

  • £250 day rate
  • £300 night rate
