I’m currently working with a South West–based charitable housing organisation to recruit a Fire Safety Compliance Assistant to support their property and asset compliance function.

This is a practical, site-based role focused on ensuring residential buildings remain safe, compliant, and well‑maintained. It’s a strong opportunity for someone looking to build or continue a career in property compliance, fire safety, or housing management within a values‑led organisation.

You’ll be responsible for carrying out and accurately recording routine safety checks across a portfolio of residential properties, including :

• Weekly fire alarm testing
• Fire door inspections
• Emergency lighting and clear corridor checks
• Maintaining accurate compliance records and reports
• Supporting the wider asset and property team with day‑to‑day compliance activity

Travel will primarily be across Plymouth, with occasional visits to sites in Dorset.

This role would suit someone who :

• Has strong attention to detail and confidence maintaining accurate records
• Is comfortable working independently across multiple sites
• Communicates clearly and professionally with colleagues and residents
• Takes a proactive, responsible approach to health, safety, and compliance
• Is keen to learn and develop within a property or compliance‑focused role

• Permanent, full‑time position
• Clear, hands‑on role with real impact on resident safety
• Supportive team environment within a not‑for‑profit organisation
• Opportunity to gain experience in fire safety and property compliance
