Osterna, part of RMG and Places for People Group, is looking for an experienced Residential Fire Risk Assessor to join a proactive and highly successful team of Health & Safety Professionals covering a patch across South London and surrounding areas.
With a positive work/life balance, you will be home‑based when not undertaking site visits. You will typically complete up to 10 site visits a week (Monday to Friday). Although we are seeking an assessor based in the South London area, national travel may be required.
What’s our USP?
With the emphasis on quality over quantity, Osterna residential Fire Risk Assessors really do benefit from having a work‑life balance rarely seen in this sector.
You will have the flexibility to choose which days you're out and about and which days you choose to work from home, when you will complete your report writing. Risk assessment reports will, in most cases, be confined to the common internal and external areas for residential developments.
What does the role involve?
Specialising in the residential housing sector, Osterna's Residential Fire Risk Assessors carry out inspections to a range of property types including traditional residential blocks, sheltered housing, HMO and high‑rise (over 18 metres) housing and write up reports with your findings.
Completed risk assessments are used by the Property Managers and Directors of the management companies to initiate repairs or any other procedures required, to ensure the residential common areas remain a safe environment.
