At Emtec Fire Systems, our sprinkler projects rely on strong communication, good planning and high standards on site.
We’re looking for an experienced Travelling Supervisor to support our installation teams across multiple live projects. This is a site-based, mobile role where you’ll be out visiting projects, checking how works are progressing, supporting the teams and making sure everything is being delivered safely, correctly and to the required standard.
It’s a great opportunity for someone who knows sprinkler installation, enjoys being visible on site and can spot issues early before they become bigger problems.
The Role
As Travelling Supervisor, you’ll act as a key link between our site teams, Project Managers, Contracts Managers, design team and operations.
You’ll visit sites regularly to review progress, quality, safety, labour performance, materials and documentation and identify early any design issues, access problems or variations. Just as importantly, you’ll provide practical support to the teams on site, helping to keep works moving.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
