At Logic Fire and Security, we don’t hire you based on your job title. Titles can be misleading and rarely tell the full story of your skills and experience. Instead, we’re on the lookout for exceptional individuals who can demonstrate their expertise in the areas outlined below. You don’t need to tick every box, if you can confidently discuss some of the experience, we’re after, then we’d love to hear from you. We won’t overlook talent just because your career path doesn’t follow a traditional trajectory.

What sets us apart is our commitment to seeing beyond your CV. We invest in people who are ready to grow with us and want to be part of a company that genuinely values their potential.

On top of that, you’ll enjoy 25 days of annual leave plus bank holidays. And because we believe birthdays should be celebrated properly, you’ll also get an extra day off just for you!

Here’s a look at some of the things you’ll be doing:

Installing and commissioning fire alarm systems, including Gent, Advanced, and Hyfire, ensuring all cabling, panel mounting, and equipment setup meet required standards for first-time completion
Carrying out minor containment works, small power installations (PSUs), and potential emergency lighting installation or replacement if competent
