Fire alarm engineers play a key role in the security industry and are responsible for the installation, testing and maintenance of fire alarm systems. Candidates may work for an electrical or security based employer and recruitment agencies are common in sourcing the best fire alarm engineers in the industry.
The security systems industry encompasses nearly 2K businesses across the UK and is worth around £800 million. Fire alarm engineers are considered a component of this field and will be responsible for servicing fire alarm / fire detection systems on small or large scale premises. Duties for staff can vary, but the majority of personnel will install, maintain and detect faults in systems. Typical systems include Gent, Kentec and Apollo. Salaries are diverse but the average earnings for a fire alarm engineer will range between £25K-£30K. This can be considerably more for experienced, London based engineers.
Before applying or recruiting for fire and security jobs, relevant parties should be aware of professionals bodies such as the BAFE and FIA. The BAFE is the independent body for the fire protection sector and sets standards for all businesses. They can provide approval, training and valuable resources. The Fire Industry Association (FIA), is a primary supplier of fire safety training. Additionally, the FIA also works alongside the government and other industry organisations to shape standards and legislation.
