Our projects are diverse and range from conceptual fire strategy development through to handing over landmark projects, such as the Tate Modern, Macallan distillery, Birmingham New Street Station and the Eden Project; we undertake fire safety research to develop evidence‑based solutions for novel fire safety hazards and strive to find ways to improve safety equity for the most vulnerable. We do this for our clients, and in partnership with academia and industry, applying our ‘total fire engineering' approach, allowing us to work on projects from feasibility to operation. We strive to enable a sustainable, resilient built environment, using the latest knowledge and expertise, assisted by our own in‑house digital tools and software.
The Opportunity
We're looking for graduates to join our team of talented of over 120 fire engineers across our UK offices. Your role will encompass all aspects of fire safety engineering. This will range from preparing fire strategies in coordination with the engineering design team to the inspection and assessment of fire safety management and protection measures in existing buildings/facilities.
As part of this, you will have the opportunity to liaise with external designers and other construction and building professionals on a wide range of projects; experience and develop your ability to use fire‑specific design software; conduct research in a variety of skills groups; and have the opportunity to visit sites to monitor the implementation of fire strategies and learn about the installation and construction of fire safety systems.
From day one, you'll be given responsibility to help contribute to a range of varied and high‑profile clients but will also be supported in learning about fire engineering and developing as a fire engineer. We encourage all employees to work towards a professional qualification and you will be given support in this endeavour as well.
Responsibilities
The role involves preparing fire strategies in coordination with design teams, inspecting and assessing fire safety management and protection measures in existing facilities, liaising with external designers and construction professionals, conducting research across skill groups, and monitoring site implementation of fire strategies.
