Security & Alarm Installation Engineer - South East England

Join AMCO's South East team - field-based across Surrey, Hertfordshire, Essex and Kent, with a company van, full equipment and structured training provided.

AMCO is growing its presence across South East England and is looking for an experienced security and alarm installation engineer to join the team. AMCO is the UK's leading specialist in monitored alarms, a family-owned business operating for over 25 years.

The role

This is a field-based engineering role covering South East England, installing and maintaining security and intruder alarm systems at customer sites. You'll need to live in the region - broadly Surrey, Hertfordshire, Essex and Kent - so you can reach appointments efficiently and represent AMCO locally.

Training

New engineers start with a 3+ week initial programme through AMCO Academy, AMCO's structured training programme for engineers and managers. Training doesn't stop once you're up to speed - AMCO runs ongoing monthly training sessions and periodic conferences to keep the whole team current.

Requirements

  • Live within South East England (Surrey, Hertfordshire, Essex or Kent area)
  • Minimum 2 years' UK security-installation experience with strong references
  • Sound electrical knowledge gained through a recognised apprenticeship
  • Working knowledge of British Standard BS4737 for intruder alarms
  • A full, clean UK driving licence
  • Competent with power tools for equipment installation and repair
  • Physically capable of the job - lifting, carrying, and working safely at height on ladders
  • Excellent spoken and written English
  • A strong customer-service focus, self-motivated, and comfortable working occasional irregular hours

Benefits

  • Competitive base salary plus a quarterly performance-based bonus scheme
  • A fully-equipped company van and tools
  • Flexible working arrangements
  • Training via AMCO Academy - a 3+ week initial programme, plus ongoing monthly training and periodic conferences
