Perigon Search Ltd is seeking a branch leader for its Romford operation in the fire and security sector. You will steer engineering and office teams, oversee service delivery, repairs and workloads, and ensure high standards of customer care and compliance.

The role suits an experienced manager or a Senior Engineer ready to step up, with strong knowledge of fire alarms, CCTV, intruder and access control, plus familiarity with British Standards and risk assessments.

If you've been servicing the same handful of sites for a couple of years and you can predict the week before it starts, that's the difference here.

The day-to-day

• Service and maintenance across fire alarms, CCTV, intruder alarms and access control.

• Fault finding on a wide range of systems. That's the part they care most about.

• Commissioning where it comes up.

• Service documentation done properly, and a share of the on-call rota.

You'd be managing your own diary and your own customers across the patch. It's a job that suits someone who'd rather be trusted than checked on.

Why this one's worth a look

The training is manufacturer-led, not a slideshow. If there's a system you've only half worked with, that's fixable here.

The team is growing, so there's a route beyond engineer for anyone who wants it. That's a real one rather than a line in an advert.

And the earnings are yours to move. Past 50,000 is normal for people who take the work on.

The package

• 38,000 to 43,000 basic, depending on experience

• OTE 50,000+

• Overtime available

• Standby payments

• Company van

• Laptop, phone and tablet

• Pension, 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays

What you'll need

• Hands-on experience across fire and security systems

• Strong fault-finding ability

• Good working knowledge of the relevant British Standards

• Full UK driving licence

Next step

Send over whatever CV you've got, even if it's out of date. Easier to have the conversation first and tidy the paperwork later.

You’ve built a good grounding across fire and security systems. Now you want somewhere that will help you strengthen it.

This role is with an established fire and security company that has been operating for more than 30 years. They invest in product training and ongoing development, making it a good next move for an engineer who already has hands-on experience but doesn’t want to stop learning.

The work is predominantly across commercial sites within the CB and CO postcode areas. There may occasionally be travel further afield when another region needs support, so it will suit someone comfortable helping nationally from time to time.

The role

You’ll be responsible for:

• Servicing and maintaining fire and security systems

• Finding and repairing faults

• Working on conventional and addressable fire alarms

• Supporting CCTV, intruder alarms, access control and emergency lighting

• Completing small installations and commissioning

• Keeping service documentation accurate and up to date

• Participating in the on-call rota

You don’t need to know every manufacturer or have spent decades in the industry. However, you will need practical experience across fire and security systems, with the confidence to service equipment and investigate faults without constant supervision.
 

What’s on offer

• £36,000–£43,000 basic salary

• Overtime, standby and call-out payments

• OTE above £50,000

• Company van and workwear

• Phone, laptop and tablet

• 25 days’ holiday plus Bank Holidays

• Pension scheme

• Product training and ongoing development

• Employee discounts and wellbeing benefits

You’ll need a full UK driving licence and must be able to pass BS7858 vetting and an Enhanced DBS check.

Overview

If you're an air conditioning install engineer - splits, VRV/VRF, DX, running your own jobs on-site - and you're tired of your evenings belonging to a call-out rota, here's a role worth reading about.

You know how to run an install properly. You turn up to a site, work out what the drawing needs, get it in cleanly and commissioned, and handle the client without anyone holding your hand. What you're probably tired of is being one engineer in a firm big enough that nobody sees any of that - and being on the phone at 9pm because the rota says you're on call. There's no call-out rota here. Your time outside the job is yours, unless you choose to pick up overtime, and the overtime pays properly. You'd be joining a small team, reporting straight to the Directors, on a mix of retail fit-outs, high-street banks and commercial sites. Small enough that your work is visible and there's a real route to leading jobs and teams as the business grows.

• Installing and commissioning split, VRV/VRF and DX systems across London.
• Retail fit-outs, bank branches and commercial sites.
• Running jobs from start to finish, and leading a small team on the bigger ones.
• Being client-facing and coordinating on-site, so it's not head-down-only work.

Mainly London. Some UK travel comes up when a national contract lands — it's planned in advance, paid, and accommodation's covered. Occasional, not a way of life.

• Proven install experience across splits, VRV/VRF and DX
• The ability to run a job on your own on-site
• A full UK driving licence
• Chiller experience is a bonus if you've got it, but it's not what gets you the job

• Up to £55,000 basic depending on experience
• Company van (Transit Custom) and fuel card, personal use allowed
• Overtime paid regularly for those who want it
• 23 days holiday plus Bank Holidays
• Pension, 4% matched
• Full manufacturer training - Daikin, Mitsubishi, Samsung and others

If this sounds like the right fit, send over your CV - doesn't need to be perfect. Everyone gets a response

Perigon Search Ltd in London is seeking an air conditioning install engineer to deliver on-site installation, commissioning and handover of split, VRV/VRF and DX systems across retail, banks and commercial sites. You will run jobs from start to finish, lead small teams and stay client-facing on-site, with no call-out rota and time for your own pursuits.

You’ll join a close-knit team reporting to Directors, with opportunities to grow as the business expands and take on larger projects.

This is an HVAC service manager role you'd genuinely run, not just hold together. You'd report straight to the Managing Director, with real room to take the whole function on and make it your own.

You've run a service department before as an HVAC service manager, or in refrigeration or critical cooling, and you know how one works from the inside: quoting, compliance, planned and reactive maintenance, and managing engineers and customers at the same time. You're not looking to learn the job on the way up. You can take a department on and make it your own. What matters to whoever hires you is less the exact title on your CV and more that you've genuinely done this.

You'll lead 15 engineers across the southern and northern operations, plus an office team of an administrator, two coordinators and a service account manager. The engineers are skilled and established - they don't need micromanaging. What they need is a manager who's actually available: the technical head they can call when a job isn't going to plan on site, the person keeping them on top of F-Gas and compliance, someone steady they can rely on.

The office team is just as capable. What they're missing is the technical backing you'll bring - pulling together the more complex quotes, getting the right detail onto risk assessments and method statements, and supporting customers when queries come up.

You'll own the department: keeping compliance and certifications in order, and making sure the day to day holds together rather than landing back on the MD's desk. This is hands-on management with real technical depth. It isn't a field engineer's role, and it isn't a desk-only admin seat. You'll be backed to run it, not second-guessed.

The base is the Fareham office in Hampshire, with site visits and customer meetings as they come up. If you'd rather be in the thick of it with your team than running a department remotely from a laptop, this will suit you. On-site presence matters here.

• 55,000 to 70,000 base, depending on experience
• Company car
• Christmas bonus linked to company performance, typically around an extra week's salary
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Company credit card for expenses, with travel and travel costs covered
• Room to grow as the business does

Real experience running a service department in HVAC, refrigeration or critical cooling - the technical grounding to back up your engineers and your office team, not just manage them. And you'll need to be happy office-based in Fareham, out to sites when it counts. This isn't a step up for an engineer who hasn't managed before. It's for someone ready to take a department on and stay.

If this sounds like the right fit, send over your CV - doesn't need to be perfect. Everyone gets a response.
