Security engineer jobs: intruder, CCTV and access control
Intruder, CCTV and access control, serviced and installed to NSI standards, on the same sites as our fire systems. One engineer, one visit, both disciplines: that is the Gemini AMPM model, and it is why multi-skilled security engineers do well here.

The work at AMPM
Service and maintenance across intruder (graded systems, signalling), CCTV (IP and analogue estates, VMS) and access control (door controllers, readers, integration). Installs and upgrades on commercial and residential sites.
Integration is the growing part: access tied to fire cause-and-effect, CCTV into monitoring, intruder signalling to ARCs. If you like making systems talk to each other, there is plenty of it.
Call-outs are shared fairly and paid properly. No heroics, no unpaid out-of-hours.
Kit, systems, standards
- Texecom, Pyronix, Honeywell Galaxy intruder
- Paxton, Salto and networked access control
- Hikvision, Axis, Dahua and VMS platforms
- IP networking, PoE, structured cabling basics
Tickets we look for
- NSI or SSAIB background, or manufacturer training on the kit above
- FESS Level 3 or time served; 18th Edition a plus
- Clean driving licence; CSCS/ECS helpful

Where you join the ladder
Apprentice → Mentor → Practitioner → Master. Engineers with three or more years join as Practitioners; senior engineers with install and commissioning depth as Masters. The Academy certifies where you already sit; nobody restarts at the bottom.
And the bit no competitor can say: the AMPM Group is employee-owned. Stay, and you own part of it. How ownership works →
