Fire Risk Assessor - Level 3 - for Fire Installer - Leeds and Surrounding

£42,000-£55,000 + Car Allowance -  Hybrid UK Wide Travel

Our client is a respected Fire Installation and Fire Protection Specialist, known for delivering practical, compliant, and installation ready fire safety solutions across residential and commercial buildings. As demand continues to grow, they're now looking for an experienced Fire Risk Assessor to join their team and help strengthen the link between installation, inspection and ongoing fire safety management.

This is a role for someone who understands buildings from the inside out - someone who can walk onto a site, spot the risks and translate them into clear, proportionate actions that support safe installation and long term compliance.

Why This Role Matters

Fire safety isn't just paperwork - it's the foundation of every installation decision. In this role, you'll be the person who ensures that what gets installed is safe, compliant and aligned with current legislation. You'll work closely with installers, contractors, and clients, becoming the trusted voice that guides decisions on the ground.

The Role

You will:

  • Identify fire safety risks and provide proportionate, installation focused recommendations
  • Carry out Type 1 and Type 3 Fire Risk Assessments across residential and commercial properties
  • Travel to sites nationwide, with occasional overnight stays
  • (Desirable) Support the validation of fire risk assessments
  • Conduct fire door inspections to support installation and maintenance teams
  • Liaise directly with clients, contractors, installers and fire safety personnel

About You

You'll thrive here if you bring:

  • Minimum RQF Level 3 qualification (low/medium risk buildings)
  • 2-3 years experience delivering fire risk assessments
  • Tier 2 registration with IFSM, IFE, or equivalent
  • Strong understanding of the Fire Safety Act 2021, Building Safety Act 2022, and FSO 2005
  • (Desirable) Level 3 Award in Fire Door Inspection (BRE Academy, FPA, FireQual or similar)
  • Evidence of ongoing CPD
  • Excellent communication, organisation, and time management skills
  • Confidence using digital tools, reporting software and mobile applications

What's on Offer

  • £42,000-£55,000 depending on experience and Tier status
  • Hybrid working
  • Company car allowance
  • Paid professional memberships + CPD support
  • Supportive, people first culture with a practical, installation led approach to fire safety

If you're a Fire Risk Assessor who enjoys being close to the installation process - not stuck behind a desk - this role offers the perfect blend of autonomy, technical challenge, and long term development.
