Now running the show? If you’ve come up through CCTV, Access Control, Door Entry, Gates or Barriers and are now in a management - this is the kind of opportunity that doesn’t come up often. This isn’t about stepping up - it’s about stepping into something with real ownership and impact. The Role: You’ll sit right at the centre of the business, acting as the link between clients, engineers and delivery. This is a hands-on operational role where you’ll be: • Keeping projects moving, • Managing engineers and subcontractors, • Dealing with clients directly, • Solving problems in real time You won’t be removed from the detail - you’ll be right in it.
