Infinity is looking for an experienced Fire Alarm Engineers to join our growing team.
We are looking for an engineer with strong technical knowledge who is confident working independently on fire alarm systems across London.
This is not purely a routine servicing position. A key part of the role will be commissioning, fault-finding and resolving technical issues, so we're looking for someone who understands fire alarm systems properly and can approach faults logically and methodically.
Installation experience would be a significant advantage.

- Commissioning fire detection and alarm systems in accordance with BS 5839-1 and project requirements
- Carrying out servicing, preventative maintenance and system inspections
- Diagnosing and rectifying faults on a range of conventional and addressable fire alarm systems
- Completing modifications, small works and system upgrades
- Carrying out installation work where required
- Testing systems and identifying non-compliances or defects
- Completing accurate service, commissioning and fault reports
- Liaising professionally with customers, site teams and other contractors
- Working independently and managing your workload effectively
- Participating in our engineer call-out rota, normally at least once per month
- Maintaining a high standard of workmanship and representing Infinity professionally on every site

What does success look like at Infinity?
You'll be the engineer customers and colleagues can rely on when a system needs more than a basic service visit.
You'll be able to arrive on site, understand the system, identify faults, commission work correctly, explain technical issues clearly and leave the system and documentation to a professional standard.
We're particularly interested in engineers who take pride in understanding why something isn't working rather than simply replacing components until the fault disappears.
What we offer
- £35,000–£48,000 salary, depending on experience and technical capability
- 28 days' holiday, including bank holidays
- An additional day's holiday on your birthday 🎂
- Travelcard for non-driving engineers
