    About the Division:
    The security division currently generates approximately £150K in annual turnover, with strategic marketing campaigns in place to drive significant growth. This role provides an excellent opportunity to shape the future of the division and play a key part in its expansion.
    Candidate Requirements:
  • Proven experience in the installation, commissioning, and maintenance of CCTV, access control, and intruder alarm systems
