Fire Safety Maintenance Inspector

Summary

In this vital role within our Property Safety team, you’ll work closely with our Group’s Fire Safety Lead and colleagues across the organisation. Your responsibilities will include carrying out fire door inspections and minor repairs, regularly testing key fire safety systems, and checking communal areas to identify and report any health, safety, or fire risks. This is your chance to make a real impact by helping keep our buildings and communities safe.

Codi is a not‑for‑profit with a big heart and an even bigger mission. As Wales’ largest provider of housing, care, and support, we’re here to help people live well, feel supported, and rise to their full potential.

We look after almost 25,000 homes across Wales and are gearing up to build more than 4,500 new ones in the next five years. Every day, our teams support nearly 17,000 individuals with services that make a real and uplifting difference to people’s everyday lives.

With over 3,000 passionate colleagues, Codi is a major player in the Welsh economy—powered by strong partnerships, shared values, and a genuine love for helping communities thrive.

Our name says it all: ‘Codi’ means rise in Welsh. It reflects who we are, where we come from, and our ambition to lift expectations, lift communities, and lift each other.

We’re recruiting four full‑time, permanent Fire Safety Maintenance Inspectors to join our Property Safety team. Three roles will cover areas along the South Wales M4 corridor, while the fourth will be based in Bangor, North Wales. Each role offers a balanced mix of site visits, office time, and home working, giving you flexibility while ensuring a strong connection with the team.

You’ll travel to residential accommodation to carry out essential fire safety inspections and minor maintenance, with a company van and all necessary equipment provided. A full UK driving licence is essential due to the need to travel independently between multiple sites.

If you’re passionate about creating safer homes and want a role where every day brings variety, this is a great opportunity to make a real impact.

To be considered for this role, you’ll need to hold one of the following recognised fire‑door inspection qualifications:

• FDIS
• ABBE Level 3 Award in Fire Door Inspection
• EAL Level 3 Award in the Inspection of Fire Doors
• GQA Level 3 Diploma in Inspection of Fire Resistant Doorsets

We’re also happy to consider any Level 3, OFQUAL‑regulated fire‑door inspection qualification that provides an equivalent level of knowledge and competence.

We’re looking for someone who has hands‑on experience working with fire doors. You should also have experience carrying out non‑technical fire and smoke alarm testing, along with a solid understanding of key health and safety procedures, including working at height, and other relevant safety practices. You must be able and willing to work independently, using the lone‑working equipment provided to ensure safety and compliance while carrying out your duties.

The ability to carry out basic building maintenance and repairs is important for this role, as is a commitment to undertaking relevant training and ongoing personal development.

At Codi, our values are Compassionate, Authentic, and Progressive. When you join us, you’ll embrace these principles and thrive in an environment shaped by them.
