• Strong installation experience across access control, CCTV, intrusion detection and associated equipment
• Experience installing Tecom Challenger and/or Inner Range Integriti systems
• CCTV installation experience, ideally with Avigilon, NX Witness or similar platforms
• Ability to undertake basic system commissioning, configuration and fault finding
• Excellent installation standards, including cable management, containment, equipment mounting and terminations
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings and installation documentation
• Capable of working independently and taking the lead on larger commercial installations when required
• Strong problem-solving abilities, good communication skills and a positive, can-do attitude
