Has deep experience in fire protection / life safety / complex building services design Is comfortable carrying technical accountability, not just producing drawings Understands British Standards, approvals, third-party certification and design risk Can think three steps ahead of site, commissioning, and maintenance teams Is commercially aware - design decisions affect cost, programme and margin Communicates with authority, not noise This role suits a professional who:
Is trusted when things are complicated Is precise, disciplined and unflappable Doesn't need supervision to do the right thing Takes pride in getting it right the first time Wants influence, not just responsibility A highly competitive package is available, reflecting the level of technical ownership and leadership required.
