Assist in preparing fire strategies for buildings and contribute to sitewide strategies under supervision.

Perform engineering analyses including calculations, fire safety evaluations, code compliance assessments, and performance-based reasoning under the guidance of senior engineers.
Interpret and apply UK fire engineering standards (BS 9999, MOD Fire Standards, etc.) to support design decisions.
Produce technical reports and engineering documentation demonstrating analytical rigor and justification for fire safety solutions.
