The University of Glasgow has been changing the world for more than 573 years, and today we are one of the world's top 100 universities. We are delighted to have recently been awarded Scottish University of the Year by the Times & Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024, demonstrating that we are not only one of the best universities in the United Kingdom, but one of the best universities for the world. Our people have always been at the forefront of innovation, and our past achievements inspire our current world changers.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Compliance Adviser (Fire) to join the University’s Estates Directorate on a permanent basis.

This post reports to the Senior Compliance Adviser (Asbestos, Fire and Specialist Support).

Responsibility and accountability for this role extends to managing all aspects of fire safety and engineering in line with the Fire (Scotland) Act and Building Standards to support the Universities compliance in this area.

You will provide technical support to all Construction, Planned Maintenance and Technical Services staff relating to fire safety both passive and active.

The role is wide in its purpose where it embraces general safety and compliance responsibility and accountability. Therefore, being an active member of the safety and compliance team rather than just providing fire specialism is essential.

The responsibility will extend to deputising for the Senior Compliance Adviser that the role reports into.
