Fire and Health & Safety Risk Assessor
Experienced Fire & H&S Risk Assessor to deliver high-quality assessments across Northern England. Remote, flexible role with varied sites, extensive client-base, and strong team support.
We are on a mission to become the leading international force in residential property management. What we do matters to billions of people in their everyday lives.
Residential real estate is the world’s largest asset class, and for most families, buying a home is the single biggest financial decision they will ever make. For too long, residential property management has fallen short of homeowners' and residents' expectations, and the industry is ready for change. Odevo was formed to make that change happen.
In just six years, Odevo has grown more than 70-fold, establishing us as the leading international player. We are more than 12,000 people across the US, the UK, the Nordics, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Mexico, and Italy building Odevo. Together, we aspire to break new ground through innovation and cultivate a workplace where we help each other succeed, where ideas matter more than titles, and where kindness is a strength.
By combining the power of people and technology, we set a new standard for how homes are managed. Our technology-enabled services simplify living for residents and create a better experience for property owners and boards.
Our ambition is to continue our fast-growing journey through new customers, service expansion, and by partnering with great companies that share our mindset and ambition, both in existing and new markets.
As we continue to grow, we stay true to who we are, challenge unnecessary bureaucracy, and keep decision-making close to our customers.
If you share our mindset and ambition, we’d love you to join us and help accelerate our mission together.

Supporting clients to understand findings, compliance requirements and next steps
Liaising with property managers to support timely resolution of fire and H&S issues
Assisting clients with remedial work schedules where required
Attending client meetings to discuss findings and compliance planning
Peer reviewing and validating works and recommendations
Providing technical advice aligned to relevant legislation and British Standards
