About Civil Fire

Civil Fire is a medium-sized, family-owned company specialising in the inspection, testing and maintenance of fire protection systems across Sydney.

We're proud to be a fair, supportive employer, with a team of 35 staff from a wide range of practical backgrounds — electrical, plumbing, carpentry, mechanical services and building surveying.

We currently service more than 1,400 residential strata buildings throughout the Sydney metropolitan area.

The Opportunity

We're seeking a Fire Service Technician to join our ITMS (Inspect, Test, Maintain, Service) team. This is a hands-on, mobile role working across different strata properties each day.

The role includes:

  • Inspecting and maintaining fire protection equipment in accordance with AS1851 (smoke alarms, exit and emergency lighting, fire doors, hydrants, hose reels, extinguishers, passive measures, sprinkler systems, pumpsets, etc.)
  • Working primarily in residential apartment buildings, knocking on unit doors and interacting comfortably with residents
  • Travelling between multiple sites daily
  • Completing minor repairs (smoke alarm batteries, light tubes, etc.)
  • Recording results accurately on Uptick.
  • Delivering excellent customer service

Knowledge of Uptick (fire compliance software) is useful but not essential. Training will be provided.

This role offers long-term development and can lead to a full and rewarding career as an accredited Fire Safety Assessor.

Who We're Looking For

You don't need to come from a trade or have fire industry experience — we're happy to train the right person from scratch.

All you need is reliability, a good attitude, and a willingness to learn.

Backgrounds that often transition well into this role include people who are practical or hands-on, such as those with experience around pumps, electrical work, plumbing/sprinkler systems, carpentry, or general building maintenance.

But these are helpful only — not essential.

You will thrive in this role if you are:
  • Punctual, well presented and reliable
  • Comfortable interacting with residents and building managers
  • Able to work independently and in teams
  • Are confident driving in Sydney - you'll work all over.
  • Interested in compliance and learning AS1851 and fire safety requirements.
What We Provide
  • Excellent hourly rate + some overtime
  • Full-time hours (Mon–Fri, 6:45am–3:15pm)
  • Company vehicle or weekly car allowance
  • RDOs, annual leave, sick leave
  • Smartphone, uniform and tools
  • Comprehensive training and career progression
Requirements
  • Current Driver's Licence
  • NSW White Card (or equivalent)
