ROLE OVERVIEW
We are looking for a Fire & Health & Safety Risk Assessor to join SRVO’s expanding Risk team, carrying out site‑based Fire Risk Assessments and General Health & Safety Risk Assessments across a varied portfolio.
This role is ideal for an experienced assessor who wants stable work, clear standards and the support of a growing compliance team, without being micromanaged.
You’ll work across Northern England, assessing internal and external common parts and producing clear, actionable reports. The work covers a mix of environments including residential, commercial, industrial and education settings, giving you genuine variety rather than repetitive site types.

The role is primarily regional, with occasional travel and overnight stays depending on client requirements.

* Your reports clearly identify priorities and practical remedial actions
* Clients trust your advice and understand their compliance obligations
* You manage your workload effectively and achieve KPI targets

* Producing clear, accurate reports with prioritised actions and required works
* Supporting clients to understand findings, compliance requirements and next steps
* Liaising with property managers to support timely resolution of fire and H&S issues
