What You Will Do

Step into a leadership role where your expertise directly drives project success, operational excellence, and customer satisfaction. As a Fire Systems Install Manager, you will lead the end-to-end delivery of electronic fire alarm solutions—overseeing installation teams, optimizing operations, and ensuring projects are completed safely, efficiently, and to the highest standards.

This is an opportunity to own the delivery process, develop high-performing teams, and make a visible impact in a critical, high-demand life safety industry.

How You Will Make an Impact

  • Lead high-performing installation teams – Provide direction, coaching, and development for technicians, installers, and technical support staff

  • Deliver exceptional customer experience – Partner with Sales and customers to ensure requirements are met from kickoff through warranty, building long-term trust

  • Own operational execution – Oversee engineering support, submittals, scheduling, labor planning, procurement, and project timelines to ensure seamless delivery

  • Drive financial performance – Manage budgets, control costs, and ensure projects meet profitability targets while maintaining top-tier quality

  • Ensure flawless installations – Oversee all technical installation activities, including programming and system commissioning in compliance with codes and customer specifications

  • Improve productivity and performance – Establish clear metrics, optimize processes, and continuously elevate team effectiveness

  • Build and develop talent – Recruit, mentor, and retain top field talent while fostering a strong, collaborative team culture

  • Champion safety excellence – Lead a safety-first culture, ensuring compliance with all corporate and regulatory standards

  • Ensure compliance and quality – Maintain adherence to all codes, regulations, and company policies while driving best-in-class execution

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Lead critical life safety projects that make a real impact

  • Work with advanced fire alarm technologies and complex installations

  • High visibility leadership role with direct influence on operations and results

  • Opportunity to build, shape, and grow a strong field team

  • Backed by a respected industry leader with a strong pipeline of work

What We’re Looking For

Required

  • 8+ years of experience in fire alarm operations and field leadership

  • Proven success managing teams, projects, and operational performance

  • Strong financial acumen and ability to manage budgets and project profitability

  • Knowledge of fire/life safety codes and regulations

  • Excellent communication, leadership, and organizational skills

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office tools

Preferred

  • NICET Level III in Fire Alarm Systems

  • Experience in fire alarm installation leadership roles

  • Ability to interpret and manage construction contracts

  • Relevant certifications or education in Fire & Life Safety, Electrical, or related fields

  • Low Voltage licensing capability (GA/SC preferred)

This role is ideal for a results-driven leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys building teams, and wants to drive operational excellence in a mission-critical industry
