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 of England, national travel will be required.

What does the role involve?
Specialising in the residential housing sector, Osterna's Residential Fire Risk Assessors carry out inspections to various property types including traditional residential blocks, sheltered housing, HMO, and high-rise (over 18 metres) housing, and write reports with your findings.
Completed risk assessments are used by Property Managers and Directors of management companies to initiate repairs or other procedures, ensuring the residential common areas remain safe.
