As an integral member of the Services and Maintenance Team, your ability to work proactively, independently, and as part of a wider team is critical.

• Ensure that solutions and services meet or exceed customer expectations.
• Assist in the commissioning of new installations and ensure customer sign-off.
• Conduct site surveys, prepare technical reports, and contribute to accurate project costings and designs.
• Complete all project and service-related documentation to meet business timelines and operational standards.
• Adhere to Johnson Controls’ procedures and Health & Safety policies.

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong experience in integrated enterprise-level systems, including:
  • CCTV
  • Intruder Alarm Systems
  • Perimeter Detection
  • Access Control
  • Video Intercom Systems
• Hands-on experience with technologies such as:
  • Genetec, Gallagher, Milestone, FLIR Latitude, ProWatch, and Commend.
• Experience with high-end CCTV cameras (Bosch, Axis, Optical/Thermal imaging).
• Experience with Grade 3 Intruder Alarm installations (Galaxy, Texecom, and peripherals).
• Familiarity with Senstar Omnitrax/Fibre Patrol and Fibre Optic systems (desirable but not essential).
• Excellent communication skills, both internally and externally with customers.
• Self-driven, enthusiastic, and able to work independently.
• Professional demeanor and customer-centric approach.

Capabilities

• Willing to travel and spend time away from home to support nationwide contracts, primarily across London and the Southeast.
• Self-motivated with a positive, customer-focused attitude.
• Proven ability to deliver high-quality customer engineering services.
• Reliable and capable of working both autonomously and as part of a team.
• Must be able to achieve and maintain government-level SC clearance.

At Johnson Controls, we offer you a challenging and dynamic environment where you can grow your expertise and contribute to a world-leading organization.
