Fire & Security Service & Installation Engineer
PeterboroughFire & Security Service & Installation Engineer Peterborough | Full-Time | Competitive Salary + Overtime + Van The Role If you’re the kind of engineer who can hear a panel beep from 20 metres away and knows exactly which zone it’s in — this one’s for you. We’re looking for a Fire & Security Service & Installation Engineer who takes pride in doing the job properly. Someone who’s just as happy fault-finding as they are upgrading systems, chatting with clients, and keeping the paperwork neat enough to make an auditor smile. It’s varied, hands-on, and best suited to someone who enjoys being trusted to get on with it — because here, you will be. What You’ll Be Doing Servicing, maintaining, and fault-finding fire alarm and security systems across different client sites. Carrying out remedials, upgrades, and small installations — keeping systems compliant and reliable. Handling small works jobs from start to finish with a tidy, professional approach. Maintaining accurate service records and certificates (you’ll thank yourself later). Working closely with the service team to keep things running smoothly. Providing technical support and great communication to clients — no jargon, just results. What You’ll Need Around 4 years’ experience in fire and security servicing or maintenance. Strong technical know-how across leading systems. Great problem-solving skills and proper attention to detail. A strong work ethic — the kind where you actually care about getting it right. A positive, adaptable approach and solid communication skills. Full driving licence and the willingness to get out on-site when needed. What You Might Not Like It’s field-based — you’ll be on the road, not sitting in an office. There’ll be days where things go wrong (alarms love picking Fridays). Paperwork matters — compliance is non-negotiable. Why It’s Worth It A solid team behind you, proper support, a van you’ll actually want to drive, and a company that backs its engineers. You’ll have room to grow, learn, and build a career — not just tick off callouts. If that sounds like your kind of gig, get in touch. Let’s see if you’re the one we’ve been waiting for. -
