Your Key Responsibilities

  • Provide fire protection design expertise on both single and multi-disciplinary projects.
  • Deliver best practices and outcomes for clients, effectively saving on costs and time while producing high-quality fire protection engineering design and documentation.
  • Take the lead on small to medium-sized engineering design projects while supporting larger initiatives, fostering a collaborative environment.

  • Ideally, you have experience in a consulting engineering environment, though backgrounds in D&C contracting will also be considered. Holding a Degree in Engineering or Building Services is essential, and pursuing chartership is highly desirable.
  • A minimum of 4 years working within the local building services sector, with a proven ability to manage medium and large complex projects, particularly in areas like transport infrastructure, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, data centers, large commercial projects, and world-class sporting arenas.
