Fire Assessor

Are you looking to join a professional building consultancy? Do you have a passion for career growth and fire safety? A rapidly growing client of ours are looking to expand their Fire Consultancy team all over the UK.

Due to the recent success of the Fire Consultancy Team, we’re now in an exciting period of growth with a new opportunity for a fire consultant specializing in fire risk assessments and general fire safety advice to join our fire consultancy team. The team forms part of established multidisciplinary office and will see the continued development and expansion our fire consultancy capabilities.

An ideal candidate will be experienced in carrying out fire risk assessments in a range of buildings and sectors, including commercial and residential sectors, and will be listed on the National Listing of Fire risk Assessors, as well as having professional membership of a recognized body (such as the Institution of Fire Engineers, Institute of Fire Safety Managers, Chartered Association of Building Engineers or Institute of Fire Prevention Officers).

Location of candidates is less important than the quality of the candidate; you can be based anywhere in the country providing that you are willing to travel. You can work remotely, from one of our offices, or a hybrid approach, although most of your work will be on site carrying out fire risk assessments.

Our client works throughout the building lifecycle, from design to in-occupation services. Depending on your experience, you may also contribute to building design, construction services, and/or other fire consultancy services, such as providing fire safety training to clients, working on safety case reports, etc.

Experience and Skills

To be successful in your application for our Fire Assessor position you will need to be fully conversant with current fire safety legislation including the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order and technical standards as well as a full understanding of current fire safety issues, trends and best practice.

It is essential that you have completed a series of nationally recognised training courses and be listed on the National Listing of Fire Risk Assessors published by the Fire Sector Federation.

Ideal candidates will have reached or be working toward Graduate level in the Institution of Fire Engineers or a comparative relevant body within the fire safety industry.

We anticipate that the Fire Risk Assessor role within the consultancy will grow and develop; therefore initial and on-going training in areas where knowledge may be limited will be fully supported.
