Security Systems Engineer
We are seeking a Security Systems Engineer to design, install, maintain and improve integrated security technologies across a range of operational environments. The role will focus on ensuring that physical security systems are reliable, resilient and aligned with business, regulatory and safety requirements. You will work closely with internal stakeholders, contractors and technology partners to deliver effective solutions that protect people, premises, assets and information.
Key responsibilities will include configuring, commissioning and supporting CCTV, access control, intruder detection, intercom, perimeter protection and associated monitoring systems. You will investigate faults, assess system performance, coordinate planned maintenance and respond to incidents or service requests. The successful candidate will produce technical specifications, system designs, test plans, risk assessments and detailed documentation. You may also support project delivery by reviewing designs, managing installations, witnessing testing, coordinating suppliers and ensuring that completed work meets agreed standards. Regular site visits may be required, together with participation in an out-of-hours escalation or on-call arrangement.
Applicants should have experience engineering or supporting electronic security systems, ideally within a complex, multi-site or highly regulated environment. Knowledge of IP networking, databases, operating systems, system integrations and cybersecurity principles is desirable, along with practical experience of fault-finding and technical diagnostics. Familiarity with relevant industry standards, data protection obligations, health and safety requirements and change-control processes would be advantageous. A methodical approach, strong communication skills and the ability to manage competing priorities are essential. You should be comfortable working independently while contributing effectively to multidisciplinary projects, and be able to explain technical issues clearly to both specialist and non-specialist audiences. Relevant technical qualifications or professional certifications are welcomed.
