Company Overview

We’re representing a well-established, family-run Fire & Security business based in Berkshire with a strong reputation for quality workmanship and long-standing client relationships. The company has built its success through providing reliable service across commercial environments and maintaining a close-knit, supportive culture for its engineers.

Unlike larger corporate businesses, this company genuinely values work-life balance, keeping travel local where possible and ensuring engineers are not consistently working beyond their contracted hours.

Role Overview

This is a varied position involving service, fault finding, small works, and installations. Sites include hotels, schools, offices, warehouses, and other commercial environments throughout Berkshire and the surrounding areas.

Requirements
• Full UK driving licence
• Security systems knowledge beneficial but not essential

The company are happy to consider engineers with predominantly Fire Alarm experience, with Security knowledge viewed as an added bonus rather than a requirement.

At Secure & Recruit, we pride ourselves on offering a trustworthy and personalised recruitment experience. As experts in the Fire & Security sector, we partner with the industry's leading employers to bring you roles that align with your skills and aspirations. Your preferences will be fully discussed to ensure the best fit possible.
