The Opportunity

• Client Advisory: Act as the trusted, expert advisor to clients, providing clear feedback and guiding them through the successful implementation of safety measures.
• Compliance & Documentation: Assist clients in developing and maintaining robust Safety Management Systems in line with the latest regulatory standards.
• Technical Leadership: Lead and mentor internal advisors through the review of safety management systems and the gap analysis process.
• Travel: Undertake nationwide travel to conduct on-site inspections and client meetings (all expenses covered).

The Ideal Candidate

• Experience: Proven background in Building Safety, Fire Safety, or a related compliance role within the residential or construction sectors.
• Regulatory Knowledge: A deep, working understanding of the Building Safety Act 2022 and current building safety regulations.
• Analytical Skills: Strong ability to translate complex technical data into clear, actionable, and commercially aware recommendations.
• Communication: Exceptional report-writing and client-facing communication skills, with the ability to influence senior stakeholders.
• Mindset: A proactive, self-starting professional who is passionate about continuous improvement and staying ahead of industry best practices.
• Qualifications: Relevant qualifications in Building Surveying, Fire Engineering, Health & Safety, or a related discipline are highly desirable.

What the Company Offers

• Autonomy: The freedom to manage your own projects and lead client engagements without micro-management.
• Impact: A genuine opportunity to make a tangible difference to building safety standards in the UK.
• Career Progression: Join a growing consultancy with clear pathways for career development and senior leadership.
• Support: The backing of a dedicated team and a robust infrastructure to support your technical delivery.
