  • Maintain CPD in line with industry and organisational standards
  • Travel daily to multiple sites across the Central Belt of Scotland; occasional overnights may be required

Essential Requirements:

  • Level 3 Fire Risk Assessment qualification (QNUK L3 FRA, FSRAC L3, or equivalent)
  • Some practical FRA experience (internal or external)
  • Understanding of fire safety principles and building fire precautions
  • Strong written communication and report-writing skills
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Ability to travel across the Central Belt of Scotland daily
  • Proactive mindset and ability to work independently

Desirable (Not Essential):

Experience with:

  • Fire doors/fire stopping
  • Active & passive fire protection checks
  • PAS 79 reporting
  • Membership of IFSM / IFE / IFPO or similar
  • Utilities, industrial or compliance background

What We Offer

  • £30,000–£45,000 depending on experience
  • Company car or car allowance
  • Full support from Senior / Principal Assessors
  • Clear development and progression opportunities
  • Training in utilities, fire safety and site induction requirements
  • Stable long-term contract

Application Process: To apply, please submit your CV and a cover letter detailing your relevant experience and qualifications for the role. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, so early submissions are encouraged.
