Fire Biased Security Project Engineer - London
Salary: £45,000 - £52,000 DOE | Hands-On & Project Management Role
We're currently recruiting for an experienced Fire Biased Security Project Engineer to join a well-established and highly respected fire and security company in London. Known for delivering high-quality fire and security solutions across commercial sites, the business prides itself on supporting its team, offering a professional, organised, and collaborative working environment, and giving senior engineers the opportunity to progress into leadership roles.
This is a hands-on, senior engineering role with a mix of on-site installation, commissioning, and off-the-tools project oversight. The role is predominantly fire-focused, with additional responsibility for access control and CCTV systems, giving you variety while keeping your technical expertise sharp. You'll be expected to manage projects from start to finish, ensuring works are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest standard.
Key Responsibilities:
Installing, commissioning, and maintaining fire alarm systems, with some access control and CCTV involvement
Managing multiple projects across commercial sites, balancing hands-on work with project coordination
Liaising with clients, engineers, and suppliers to ensure smooth project delivery
Ensuring all works comply with relevant industry standards and regulations
Supporting junior engineers where required, sharing knowledge and expertise
What They're Looking For:
Minimum 10 years' experience in fire and security engineering, ideally with a fire bias
Strong commissioning skills and technical knowledge of fire, access control, and CCTV systems
Ability to manage projects while staying technically involved
Professional, reliable, and self-motivated with excellent organisational skills
Senior engineer looking to take the next step in career progression
Why This Role Stands Out:
Competitive salary £45k-£52k DOE
Balanced hands-on and project management work, ideal for senior engineers who want variety
Work with a company renowned for quality, professionalism, and career development
Opportunity to manage high-profile projects across London
Supportive management and structured workflow
Access to modern tools, technology, and ongoing training
If you're a Fire Engineer, Security Engineer, Project Engineer, Installation Engineer, or Technical Manager with the experience and drive to progress, this is a fantastic opportunity to join a company that truly values its senior engineering talent.
