In plain English

Balfour Beatty Vinci is hiring a fire engineer to review, inspect, and certify fire safety systems across HS2 (High Speed 2 rail) construction sites in the north. You'll check that passive fire protection (materials and design that stop fire spreading) meets regulations, produce compliance reports, and support handover from design through to completion.

What the buyer wants

• Conduct design reviews and fire strategy assessments for HS2 assets • Carry out site inspections and compliance checks on compartmentation and fire stopping systems • Produce certification and compliance reports throughout design and construction phases • Provide handover support and specialist fire engineering advice

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: This contract requires substantial fire engineering expertise and professional qualifications (chartered engineer level); sole traders or small teams without formal fire engineer credentials, significant infrastructure project track record, or professional indemnity insurance will not be competitive.
