1 month ago
**Position**: Senior/Associate Fire Engineer
**Location**: Gold Coast
**Employment Type**: 9-day, 76 hour fortnight. Work from home 1 day per week to schedule agreed with management
**Provisional Start Date**: March 2025
**Package**: Flexible starting salary, commensurate with experience + performance-based bonuses
**Role Overview**:
Our client in Gold Coast is looking for a driven and self-sufficient Senior/Associate Fire Engineer to join their expanding team. If you are already present in Gold Coast, you must be aware of its incredible lifestyle.
For those considering a move, Gold Coast stands as one of Australia’s fastest-growing regions, drawing new businesses and development, and is just over an hour from Queensland’s capital, Brisbane. It will also host the 2032 Olympics and offers a remarkably stable climate.
Our client is a small-medium sized fire consulting firm that has been around for over 20 years, providing a broad array of project opportunities across various building types and sizes.
With deep expertise in fire code reform and a solid track record of gaining regulatory acceptance from both state and national bodies, this firm is well-positioned to secure approval for innovative and safe solutions.
The company’s goal is to deliver cost-effective, reliable solutions through a highly skilled team. It prioritizes creating a positive work environment with high job satisfaction, work-life balance, professional growth, and a strong quality assurance framework.
Effective advocacy skills are key to navigating Australia’s dual regulatory framework, which includes both prescriptive “deemed-to-satisfy” codes and alternative performance requirements. Strong communication and a mature, solution-oriented approach are essential for working collaboratively with building professionals and fire brigades.
**Key Responsibilities**:
As a Senior level Fire Engineer, you’ll lead a small team of engineers, overseeing projects, and ensuring profitability. Your core duties include:
- Producing well-structured, concise reports that clearly outline proposed solutions with low liability risk, supporting straightforward project approvals. Reports must be timely;
- Liaising with other consultants e.g architects, certifiers and services engineers;
- Supervision and mentoring of junior engineers;
- Develop fee proposals & build strong client relationships;
- Meeting with the fire brigade and advocating performance solutions;
- Using and sensibility checking computer program use including FDS, CFAST and Firewind;
- Reviewing reports to company quality standards;
- Completing at least 50 hours of continuing professional development annually, including attending seminars, mentoring engineers etc.
- Addressing administrative tasks and contributing to the team and company’s goals by proactively solving challenges.
**Qualifications required**:
- Bachelor's degree in engineering or science with postgraduate studies in fire engineering to professional level recognized by state and federal accreditation bodies;
- 5-6+ years experience in fire engineering;
- Strong communication skills and a commitment to mentoring and professional growth.
