Job description

Trainee Fire Extinguisher Technician

Permanent | Field-Based | £31,000 + Bonus (OTE up to 11%) South East & Wider UK | Head Office: Morden, Surrey

Are you practical, hands-on, and looking to build a long-term career in a growing industry? We’re looking for a Fire Extinguisher Technician to join our client’s expanding engineering team — no prior fire industry experience needed. If you enjoy being out on the road, solving problems, and delivering great service, this could be the perfect next step.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Fire Extinguisher Technician, you’ll be the face of the business on client sites across the South East. Your role will focus on keeping workplaces safe and compliant by servicing, installing, and maintaining essential fire safety equipment.

Your day-to-day will include:

  • Servicing and maintaining fire extinguishers, fire blankets, and hose reels
  • Installing and commissioning new extinguishers, signage, and safety equipment
  • Carrying out fire safety signage surveys
  • Identifying non-compliance and reporting findings clearly
  • Communicating professionally with clients and representing the company with pride

This is an active, physical role involving lifting equipment (up to 15kg) and regular site work.

Training & Development

You’ll receive full training from day one — we invest heavily in developing our engineers.

  • Week 1: Warehouse-based induction to learn the fundamentals
  • Weeks 2–8: Field shadowing with a Senior Engineer
  • After sign-off: Your own company van & fuel card
  • Fully funded BAFE qualification
  • Ongoing support, coaching, and clear progression pathways

If you’re motivated, reliable, and eager to learn, we’ll give you everything you need to succeed.

Requirements

We hire for attitude and potential, not just experience.

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

  • Practical, hands-on, and proactive
  • Organised and able to manage your day independently
  • A strong communicator who enjoys working with customers
  • Detail-focused with a commitment to compliance
  • A team player who values collaboration
  • Flexible and comfortable travelling across the region

Essential:

  • Full UK driving licence
  • Willingness to learn and grow within the fire safety industry

Benefits

Salary & Benefits

  • £31,000 basic salary
  • Performance bonus (OTE up to 11%) - Last year’s average bonus: £3,500
  • Company van & fuel card (after training)
  • Pension (auto-enrolment)
  • 20 days holiday + 8 bank holidays - Includes 3 days allocated over Christmas
  • Fully funded training & qualifications
  • Quarterly engineer meetings
  • Annual company staff day

Working Pattern

  • Monday to Friday
  • 7:00am – 4:30pm (30-minute unpaid lunch)
  • Travel mainly across the South East (London, Kent, M25)
  • Occasional wider UK travel
  • Overnight stays not required, but flexibility is appreciated
