Role overview
The Fire Designer will work on an ongoing contract, allocated to design projects that typically run for around 12 weeks at a time before moving on to the next assignment.

- Contribute to project handover information and respond to design-related queries during delivery.

- Proven experience as a Fire Designer or similar (multi-skilled building services or fire-focused background).
- Awareness and practical use of CAD and/or Bluebeam; does not need to be an expert, but comfortable working with drawings and mark-ups (Bluebeam experience is advantageous over CAD).

- Ability to work independently on remote projects, managing workload and deadlines across 12-week project cycles.
- Strong communication skills for remote collaboration with internal and external stakeholders.
Desirable
- Experience on data centre projects (beneficial but not essential).
