That's where you come in, as a Reactive Operator in our Central Monitoring Station team based in Northampton. You’ll provide excellent customer service and front line support to branch managers and third parties by remotely monitoring CCTV & Intruder alarms, ensuring incidents are managed/reported in a timely manner.
