Job description

At Fire Safe Services, we don’t hire you based on your job title. Titles can be misleading and rarely tell the full story of your skills and experience. Instead, we’re on the lookout for exceptional individuals who can demonstrate their expertise in the areas outlined below. You don’t need to tick every box; if you can confidently discuss some of the experience we’re after, then we’d love to hear from you. We won’t overlook talent just because your career path doesn’t follow a traditional trajectory.

What sets us apart is our commitment to seeing beyond your CV. We invest in people who are ready to grow with us and want to be part of a company that genuinely values their potential. Many organisations talk about growth, but we’ve already achieved significant milestones; we’d be thrilled to share our journey with you. Let’s start the conversation.

The role we’re hiring for is a Fire & Security Engineer to join our team based in the West Midlands. You will be responsible for carrying out maintenance on fire and security systems for our clients. This is a new opportunity to lead the service and maintenance, and we welcome interest from candidates who have a track record of operations in Fire & Security systems.

What you receive for joining us:

We’re looking to offer a salary of £30,000 - £40,000 for this role and are open to candidates of various levels. In addition, we offer a company van, 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays), plus your birthday off as an additional day. If it falls on a weekend, you can take this on a Friday or Monday, paid travel, and overtime rates paid up to double rates, as well as a quarterly bonus scheme.

Here’s a look at some of the things you’ll be doing:

• Regular routine servicing and repairs of various fire alarm systems and other associated systems.
• Reactive calls and repairs to a high standard aiming for first-time fix.
• Ensuring high-standard service inspections are performed within agreed timescales.
• Completing detailed and accurate reports using app technology and ensuring that an accurate and high standard of company documentation is maintained.

Can you show experience in some of these areas:

• Minimum 2 years’ experience in fire and security systems, but if you have less, please do still apply; we would like to speak to you regardless.
• An understanding of relevant British Standards, in particular clauses relating to servicing and maintenance.
• Notifier training desirable, but training can be given for the right candidate.
• Full UK driving licence is essential.

Do you see yourself reflected in the description above? If so, we encourage you to submit your application today. Uncertain whether your skills align perfectly? Don't hesitate to apply regardless; we value candidates with diverse skill sets and will carefully consider all applicants.
