You will lead fire safety assessments, develop and review fire strategies, and provide technical advice throughout the design, construction, occupation and refurbishment of facilities. Key responsibilities will include interpreting relevant legislation, standards and guidance; reviewing architectural, structural and building services designs; assessing fire risks and means of escape; specifying active and passive fire protection measures; and preparing clear, evidence-based reports. You will also support fire risk assessments, audits, inspections and investigations, identify remedial actions, and monitor the effective close-out of recommendations. The role will involve working closely with project teams, designers, contractors, facilities representatives, regulators and other stakeholders, as well as mentoring less experienced engineers and contributing to continuous improvement of fire safety processes.

Professional registration or progress toward recognised fire engineering accreditation is desirable. You will have strong knowledge of fire safety legislation, codes, standards, evacuation principles, fire dynamics and passive and active protection systems, with experience applying performance-based approaches where appropriate. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential, along with the ability to manage competing priorities, explain complex issues to non-specialists and produce accurate technical documentation. A proactive, collaborative and analytical approach is expected, supported by a commitment to professional integrity, safety and ongoing learning.
