Job Description:

Fire Door Surveyor

About The Role:

Due to continued business growth, we are expanding our surveying team to maintain our commitment to delivering high-quality, technically robust surveying reports that exceed client expectations.

As a Passive Fire Protection (PFP) and Fire Door Surveyor, you will carry out detailed surveys across a wide range of building environments—including hospitals, commercial offices, industrial sites, and high-rise residential buildings. You will be responsible for collecting, interpreting, and reporting accurate survey data, providing clear recommendations that support client decision-making.

You will utilise specialist software systems such as Bolster and OneTrace; experience with either is preferred, an in-depth understanding of both is ideal.

While we endeavour to allocate work locally, this is a national role and may require travel and overnight stays; therefore, flexibility is essential.

Key Responsibilities:

• Complete PFP and Fire Door surveys across allocated sites in line with internal service standards, ensuring 100% compliance with survey methodology and agreed daily/weekly survey targets
• Assess compartmentation and fire doors against Approved Document B, relevant British Standards, and best-practice guidance, ensuring all non-compliances are captured with accurate photographic evidence at the point of inspection
• Record survey data using Bolster and OneTrace with zero missing data fields, ensuring all entries are completed within 24 hours of site attendance
• Produce high-quality written reports within 3–5 working days of survey completion, ensuring clarity for both technical and non-technical audiences and delivering actionable recommendations
• Maintain effective communication with client representatives, ensuring all site issues, access requirements, and progress updates are communicated promptly and professionally
• Interpret fire strategy drawings and documentation accurately, ensuring all observations and recommendations align with project fire strategies and regulatory requirements
• Contribute to continuous improvement, providing feedback that supports service enhancement and upholds Adaston’s commitment to accuracy and professionalism

About You:

• Significant experience surveying fire doors and passive fire protection systems, with a strong understanding of compartmentation principles
• Industry-recognised qualifications such as FDIS, BRE, ASFP, or BM TRADA (desirable)
• Demonstrable capability in producing high-quality survey reports and working with digital surveying platforms
• Ability to work independently with strong organisational discipline, as well as collaboratively within a wider project team
• A commitment to delivering exceptional work in a variety of building environments
• Strong communication skills with the confidence to engage with clients and project teams
• A proactive and positive approach, with the drive to develop professionally and contribute to the success of the team
