Fire Safety Advisor

Compartmentation Specialist – National Role

A highly respected multi-disciplinary consultancy is seeking an experienced and dedicated professional to lead its compartmentation services across surveying, compliance, and technical teams. This firm, known for providing top-tier surveying, engineering, project management, and fire safety services across England and Wales, is at the forefront of addressing the significant challenges facing the built environment, particularly in high-risk sectors such as residential, mixed-use, and student accommodation buildings.

As a Compartmentation Specialist, the successful candidate will play a pivotal role in assessing and remediating compartmentation deficiencies within multi-occupied buildings. This includes conducting thorough assessments of fire strategies, identifying fire risks, and advising on remediation options and strategies, all while ensuring compliance with relevant building safety legislation.

The ideal candidate will have a strong knowledge of building construction, fire safety standards, and compartmentation systems, along with a detailed understanding of statutory regulations such as the RRFSO, Building Safety Act, and Building Regulations. While professional qualifications are desirable, they are not an absolute requirement for the role. A thorough understanding of passive fire protection and compartmentation solutions will be essential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Conduct comprehensive reviews of Fire Risk Assessments and recommend solutions to address areas of non-compliance.
• Survey and identify compartmentation deficiencies within both residential and commercial multi-occupied buildings.
• Produce detailed reports outlining findings, recommended actions, and strategies to mitigate identified deficiencies.
• Collaborate closely with building surveyors, fire engineers, architects, project managers, and other stakeholders to implement and oversee fire safety remediation plans.
• Ensure that all remediation schemes meet or exceed British fire safety regulations and standards.
• Mentor and guide team members to ensure effective implementation of fire compartmentation strategies and adherence to relevant standards.
• Maintain clear and effective communication, both written and verbal, with all stakeholders involved in compartmentation projects.

Package Includes:

• Competitive salary up to £110,000, based on experience, aptitude, and ability.
• Performance-based bonus.
• Pension scheme.
• Private healthcare.
• Gym membership.
• CPD opportunities, training, and career progression.
• 25 days of holiday, plus a discretionary period between Christmas and New Year.
