    • Attendance Bonus: 50% of any invoice value for callout visits
  • Holiday Entitlement: 26 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
  • Vehicle Use: Private use of company van permitted (subject to HMRC tax compliance)
    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
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple jobs and priorities
  • Excellent client-facing and communication skills
  • Ability to work independently and take ownership of your division
  • Full UK driving licence
