Job Title: Fire Safety Technical Lead

Working Pattern: Monday – Friday, South of England (covering Midlands through South)

About the Role

This isn’t just another fire risk assessment role. It’s a newly created position with a clear purpose: to help define our fire safety strategy, shape the way we work, and build a function that sets the standard for excellence. If you’re passionate about fire safety and want to play a pivotal role in how services evolve, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact.

What makes this role different?

Strategic influence: You’ll do more than deliver assessments, you’ll help set technical standards, processes, and training aligned to BAFE SP205, ensuring quality and compliance across the business.

Build from the ground up: From templates to service propositions, you’ll help create a robust, scalable fire safety offering that positions us as a trusted technical advisor.

Variety & travel: Covering the Midlands through the South, you’ll spend around 20% of your time on the road, including overnight stays, working on diverse sites and projects.

What you’ll do:

• Deliver Tier 3 Fire Risk Assessments (T3 FRAs) for complex environments.

• Mentor consultants nationwide, driving competency and consistency.

• Define training and development frameworks for our H&S consultancy team.

• Oversee multi-site fire safety projects and validate FRA reports for accuracy.

• Keep templates and documentation current with legislation and best practice.

• Provide technical advice to clients and colleagues and support new service offerings such as fire strategies and specialist consultancy.

What we’re looking for:

• Minimum Level 4 Fire Risk Assessment qualification (Level 5 preferred).

• Strong technical knowledge of fire safety legislation and standards.

• Experience in complex FRA delivery and mentoring.

• Flexibility to travel and stay overnight when required.

A career that you define. At Howden, we value diversity – there is no one Howden type. Instead, we’re looking for individuals who share the same values as us:

• Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new

• We support each other in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges

• We are determined to make a positive difference at work and beyond

We're committed to providing reasonable accommodations at Howden to ensure that our positions align well with your needs. Besides the usual adjustments such as software, IT, and office setups, we can also accommodate other changes such as flexible hours* or hybrid working*.

If you're excited by this role but have some doubts about whether it’s the right fit for you, send us your application – if your profile fits the role’s criteria, we will be in touch to assist in helping to get you set up with any reasonable adjustments you may require.
