Senior Fire Risk Assessor
Location: North West region
Salary: £40,000 – £55,000 + company car + benefits
NPG Fire Safety Ltd is hiring a Senior Fire Risk Assessor to join our growing consultancy team. This is a key opportunity for an experienced assessor looking to contribute meaningfully to a well-established, highly accredited fire safety consultancy with the potential to progress into a future leadership and validation role within the business.
Who we are:
We are an independent fire and security business built on the values of competency, integrity, and value. We are multi-disciplined, with extensive third-party accreditation across all core services, including:
* BAFE SP205 – Life Safety Fire Risk Assessment
* BAFE SP203-1 – Design, Installation, Commissioning & Maintenance of Fire Detection & Alarm Systems
* BAFE SP203-4 – Design, Installation, Commissioning & Maintenance of Emergency Lighting Systems
* BAFE SP101 – Maintenance of Portable Fire Extinguishers
* NSI Gold - Fire
* NACOSS Gold – Electronic Security Systems (CCTV, Access Control & Intruder Alarms)
* NAPIT – Electrical
We are one of only two companies in the UK fire and security sector to hold this level of third-party accreditation across both fire safety consultancy and system delivery. Coupled with our commitment to fair pricing and high standards, this delivers real value — reflected in our 99% client retention rate.
Our staff retention is 100%, driven by a culture that prioritises development, support, and balance. We offer competitive salaries, ongoing training, new vehicles and equipment, regular team-building days, and realistic workloads backed by achievable timeframes.
We don’t use commission structures, as we feel they have no place in a safety industry. Instead, we motivate our staff the right way and focus on quality, trust, and long-term relationships with our clients — values that continue to drive our growth.
With a satellite office in Manchester and further expansion planned, we’re now looking for a like-minded leader to help shape the next phase of our journey.
What we offer:
* £40,000 – £55,000 salary depending on experience
* Company car
* Hybrid and remote working flexibility
* 24 days’ holiday + bank holidays
* 5% company pension
* Real career progression toward future roles such as Head of Consultancy and Validator
* Ongoing training and support through our internal FRA Academy
* A values-driven business focused on quality, trust, and realistic workloads
Key responsibilities:
* Carry out fire risk assessments across a broad range of commercial and residential buildings
* Prepare clear, concise, and fully compliant reports
* Liaise with clients to explain findings and support improvement measures
* Maintain up-to-date knowledge of relevant legislation, guidance, and emerging industry best practice
* Support, mentor, and guide junior and trainee assessors
* Collaborate with internal teams to ensure high standards and client satisfaction
What we’re looking for:
* Proven experience conducting fire risk assessments
* A recognised Level 4 fire risk assessment qualification (Level 3 may be considered if accompanied by strong experience and a willingness to develop)
* Ideally, registration with a tiered FRA register (e.g. IFSM)
* Excellent technical knowledge and attention to detail
* Clear written and verbal communication skills
* Professional integrity and pragmatism
* Full UK driving licence and the unrestricted right to work in the UK
If you're looking for a role with purpose, genuine progression, and the support to take the next step in your fire safety career, we’d love to hear from you.
