Ripley, United Kingdom Derbyshire County Council Full time

**PLEASE DO NOT APPLY USING THE DERBYSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL WEBSITE, PLEASE SEE DETAILS BELOW.**

**1 x Permanent Position.**:
**Based at South Area Office, Ascot Drive Community Fire Station.**:
Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service (DFRS) is a high achieving, dynamic and forward-thinking organisation. As part of this recruitment process, we will be looking for a positive, creative and motivated individual who will be able to help shape and develop our fire safety service delivery in the years to come, ensuring that the level of service and fire safety protection offered to the people of Derbyshire continues to be of the highest standard.

As one of our Business Safety Advisors you will work to support businesses and educate them to comply with their statutory duties relating to fire safety legislation. You will increase the presence of DFRS in the business community and signpost businesses to further information and/or other relevant enforcing authorities where appropriate. This will include the development of web material and social media content.

You will work to identify and establish links with a diverse range of business networks within Derbyshire to ensure DFRS fully contributes to supporting economic growth through better regulation at a local level.

As part of a Fire Safety team, you will also carry out inspection work and follow up activities, responding to, and supporting response crews, post fire incidents, unwanted fire alarm activations and complaints relating to simple premises in the built environment. You will undertake consultations relevant to the role such as licensing and temporary event notices. You will assist owners and occupiers of buildings to comply with current fire safety regulations, sometimes in challenging situations. Therefore, a confident, enthusiastic and professional attitude is essential, along with excellent interpersonal, communication and negotiation skills.

An outline knowledge and understanding of the broad aims of risk-based fire safety legislation and the principles of risk-based management is required.

The successful applicant will complete our structured programme of externally verified fire safety training. You will be developed within the role and may have the opportunity to progress through the career progression criteria. You will be required to attend training (sometimes residential) in and out of Derbyshire as part of the role.

You will be required to work from various DFRS locations as necessary for which a pool car will be provided. A full UK driving license for manual vehicles is essential (reasonable adjustments can be made under the Equality Act 2010 for those unable to hold a driving licence due to a disability).

The normal working week is 37 hours, usually worked Monday to Friday, however you may occasionally need to work beyond normal office hours, evenings and weekends as required.

In return we offer;
- Flexible working hours.
- Family friendly policies.
- Annual Leave entitlement of 25 days, increasing to 30 days after 5 years’ service.
- Free, secure on-site car parking.
- Health & wellbeing services, including free access to gyms at Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service locations.
- Employee discount scheme (Boost).
- Employee support networks.
- Ongoing training and development opportunities.
- Eligibility to join the Local Government Pension Scheme with generous employer contributions.
- Eligibility to join Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVC) offering highly beneficial tax advantages.

Please be advised that we are currently in the process of introducing a new Job Evaluation scheme and will also be reviewing the pay and grading structure. As a result of this all Support roles will be re-evaluated.

We are committed to equality and fairness at work. Applications are encouraged from all diverse communities.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of Adults, Children and Young People. Our recruitment and selection procedures reflect this, and all staff are expected to share this commitment.

In addition, a standard disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) will be requested for the successful applicant.
