Fire Risk Assessor

Manchester | Hybrid Working |

This opportunity sits within a nationally recognised compliance and environmental services group delivering fire safety solutions across commercial, residential and public sector environments throughout the UK. Backed by substantial investment and a strong pipeline of secured work, the fire division is continuing to expand across the North West.

They are looking to appoint a Fire Risk Assessor to join their Manchester team; someone who is technically competent, client-focused and keen to continue developing their expertise across fire risk assessments, compartmentation and passive fire compliance.

The business already has established contracts and strong internal technical support in place. This is not a role where you are left isolated or overloaded. Instead, you will join a structured team environment with access to experienced professionals, ongoing CPD and long-term progression opportunities.

Key duties will include:

  * Carrying out Fire Risk Assessments in line with current UK legislation and guidance

  * Undertaking fire door inspections and compartmentation surveys

  * Producing clear, technically sound and practical reports for clients

  * Advising clients on remedial actions, compliance priorities and risk reduction strategies

  * Building strong working relationships with clients, stakeholders and internal teams

  * Keeping up to date with legislative developments and industry best practice

  * Supporting wider technical delivery across the fire safety team where required

About You

The successful candidate is likely to have experience within a consultancy, surveying or compliance-led environment and will be comfortable managing their own workload while maintaining strong technical standards.

Suitable applicants are likely to possess:

  * Experience carrying out Fire Risk Assessments independently

  * Working knowledge of fire doors, passive fire protection and compartmentation

  * Good understanding of current fire safety legislation and guidance

  * Membership with the IFE, IFSM or another recognised competency framework

  * Strong report writing and client communication skills

  * A proactive and professional approach to client-facing work

Candidates working towards higher qualifications or professional registration are also encouraged to apply.

Why This Role?

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to join a growing fire safety division within a larger organisation that can offer long-term career progression, varied project exposure and ongoing professional development.

Package includes:

  * Competitive salary depending on experience

  * Company vehicle or car allowance

  * Hybrid/flexible working

  * Ongoing CPD and technical training

  * Enhanced benefits package

  * Pension and additional lifestyle benefits

  * Clear progression opportunities within a growing national business
