London & South East | Up to £48,000 + 10% Bonus + Company Van
I’m currently recruiting for three Lead Service Engineer positions with a specialist fire protection business working on some of the most technically demanding environments across London and the South East.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced engineer with a strong electrical background who wants to take their career into a more specialist environment, working across fire detection, fire suppression and critical data centre projects.
If you're already operating at a senior level and want to work on projects where your technical knowledge genuinely matters, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

You’ll take a lead role in the service and maintenance of specialist fire systems, working across high-specification and live environments.
Your responsibilities will include:

- Supporting projects within data centre environments
- Carrying out complex fault finding, diagnostics and technical problem solving
- Working directly with clients and site teams
- Providing technical support and ensuring systems are operating to a high standard
- Travelling across London and the South East
This is a hands-on engineering position for someone who enjoys technically challenging work and wants to develop further within a specialist sector.
What They're Looking For
You'll ideally have:
- A strong electrical engineering background
- Proven experience within fire detection and/or fire suppression
- Strong fault-finding and diagnostic skills
- Experience working within commercial or critical environments
- The confidence to work independently and take ownership of service activity
- Good communication skills when dealing with clients and site teams
Data centre experience would be highly advantageous, but strong transferable experience within fire systems will also be considered.
Package
- Up to £48,000 basic salary depending on experience
- 10% annual bonus
- Company van
- Permanent position
- Specialist data centre projects
- Opportunity to develop within a highly technical fire protection environment
- London & South East coverage
