  • Proven experience in maintaining security systems, including CCTV, access control, intruder alarms, and some fire alarms
  • Knowledge of major system brands such as Pyronix, Honeywell, Scantronic, Menvier, Texecom, Hikvision, Paxton, C‑Tec, Advanced, Kentec
  • Understanding of networking principles (IP addressing, PoE, switches, diagnostics)
  • Strong fault‑finding and problem‑solving skills
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Reliable, organised, and able to work independently
Desirable
  • Relevant technical qualifications (City & Guilds, NVQ, BTEC)
  • Manufacturer training certificates
  • ECS or CSCS card
Why this role
  • £32,000-£40,000 depending on experience
  • Company vehicle, fuel card, laptop, and mobile provided
  • Monday‑Friday, 8:30am‑5:30pm with occasional on‑call
  • Training and progression opportunities
  • Hands‑on, varied work in a trusted and established Midlands business
