Work for a Company That Respects Engineers
Tired of being just another name on a job sheet? This is an opportunity to join a well-established and growing security systems specialist that values its engineers, invests in training, and focuses on quality installations and service - not rushed jobs or shortcuts.
The company delivers security system design, installation, servicing, and maintenance across commercial, industrial, and high-end residential environments. Their reputation is built on technical competence, reliability, and long-term client relationships, not unrealistic KPIs or constant pressure.
Due to continued growth, they are seeking an experienced Security Service & Maintenance Engineer to join their Manchester-based team.

Diagnose faults and carry out first-time fixes where possible
Replace devices, controllers, cameras, and system components
Ensure all work meets relevant standards and company procedures
Complete clear service and maintenance documentation
Represent the company professionally on client sites
Sites include commercial offices, retail and hospitality, industrial facilities, and high-end residential properties. You'll manage your own workload and van stock with genuine technical support when required.
What They're Looking For
Essential:
Experience in security system servicing, maintenance, or installation
Strong fault-finding skills across at least two disciplines (CCTV, intruder, access control)
Good understanding of industry standards and best practice
Full UK driving licence
Professional attitude and attention to detail
Desirable:
Experience with multiple manufacturers
SSAIB or NSI environment experience
