Senior Fire Engineer - Multiple UK Locations

We're partnering with a leading consultancy to recruit an ambitious Senior Fire Engineer ready to take their next big career step. This is an opportunity to work across a wide range of sectors-cities & development, commercial, energy, residential, and transportation-while shaping safer, smarter environments for future generations.

The Role

You'll lead your own projects while collaborating with a national network of design professionals. Expect variety, autonomy, and the chance to help grow and strengthen a dynamic fire engineering team.

Responsibilities

  • Deliver fire engineering solutions across diverse sectors

  • Manage multiple projects from concept to completion

  • Ensure compliance with fire safety standards and codes

  • Stay up to date with evolving regulations and legislation

  • Assess and mitigate fire‑related risks

  • Review fire safety installations and provide technical feedback

  • Prepare reports and contribute to design team meetings

  • Support tenders and help secure new work

What You'll Bring

  • Engineering degree (ideally fire engineering)

  • Proven track record delivering fire safety projects

  • Familiarity with BS9999, NFPA 130, BS9992, EN45545

  • Fire modelling experience (advantageous)

  • Experience beyond the building sector (bonus)

  • Ambition to achieve Chartered Fire Engineer status

  • Strong commercial awareness and client focus

  • Clear, structured approach to reporting and communication

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on prestigious UK projects across multiple sectors

  • Comprehensive development programme supporting chartership

  • Competitive salary and benefits

  • Join a rapidly expanding team

  • Flexible working-no fixed hours, no mandatory office time

  • Supportive culture with strong networks and community initiatives

Locations

Bristol, Epsom, Glasgow, London, Derby (with flexibility across the UK).
