Your responsibilities will include developing technical specifications, system architectures and project documentation; configuring and commissioning access control, CCTV, intruder detection, intercom, alarm monitoring and associated security technologies; and supporting the integration of security platforms with wider IT, facilities and building management systems. You will investigate faults, analyse system performance, coordinate planned maintenance and respond to incidents, ensuring issues are resolved promptly and with minimal disruption.
