* Occasionally representing our company at meetings.
* Ensuring clients are compliant with current legislation using the relevant guidance and standards applicable.
* Surveying fire doors and fire stopping.

* Have good records of CPD and willing to self-enhance their knowledge of fire safety.
* Have a good knowledge of UK legislation and guidance, including housing fire safety guidance.
* Be a member of the IFSM or IFE. (This is desirable).
