Fire Testing Engineer

Your engineering career shouldn't start with you sitting behind a desk doing the same thing every day.

At Jensen Hughes, you'll get hands-on experience from day one, working alongside some of the industry's leading fire testing and engineering professionals.

You'll be exposed to real projects, real clients and real-world engineering challenges. Everything from testing how building materials and systems perform in fire, to site inspections in our LAB, risk assessments and helping develop solutions that protect people and property.

It's a chance to take what you've learned at university and see engineering in action.

What's in it for you?

🔥 Get mentored by experienced engineers and develop specialist knowledge that you won't get from a textbook.

🏗️ Work in our fire testing laboratory and get involved in site inspections, testing and real projects.

🌏 No two projects are exactly the same, giving you exposure to a broad range of engineering challenges.

🤝 Work directly with clients and experienced consultants while developing your communication and problem-solving skills.

🚀 Develop your technical expertise and create a strong foundation for a long-term career in fire engineering and safety.

If you're curious, practical and want to use your engineering degree to solve problems that genuinely matter, we'd love to hear from you.
