Associate Fire Engineer
The Opportunity
You’re an Associate Fire Engineer who wants to lead—on projects, with clients, and within a growing team. At Stantec, you’ll join an expanding Fire Engineering capability within our Buildings business, working across a national platform from any of our UK offices. This is a role where you’ll combine technical depth with leadership, shaping how fire engineering is delivered across a multidisciplinary environment and contributing to the continued growth of the service.
About the Role
You will lead the delivery of fire engineering strategies across a diverse portfolio of projects, from concept through to construction and handover. This includes:
- Both performance-based and code-compliant design, ensuring solutions are practical, coordinated, and aligned with regulatory requirements.
- Acting as a technical authority—guiding design teams, overseeing modelling inputs, and ensuring quality across outputs.
- Collaborating with internal specialists and other disciplines, integrating fire engineering into wider project delivery.
Beyond technical leadership:
- Ownership of client relationships—leading meetings, advising on strategy, and ensuring successful project outcomes.
- Contributing to business development by supporting bids and identifying opportunities to expand the service offering.
- Mentoring engineers, shaping technical standards, and fostering a collaborative, high-performing team environment.
Your Impact
You’ll influence how complex buildings are designed and delivered, helping clients navigate fire safety requirements on projects that are both technically robust and practical.
