Fire Door Manager – Central London, Regent Street
£45,000 – £53,000 per year Full-time, permanent

Fire doors aren’t just part of a building – they’re about safety, compliance, and peace of mind. That’s why this role is all about taking ownership, leading a small team, and making sure every project runs with precision.

You’ll be joining a long-established, family-founded business that’s now part of a respected international facilities management group.

Why you’ll want this job:
You’ll have the chance to shape and lead a key area of the business, working closely with senior management while also being trusted to run your own department. It’s a role where your expertise will be valued, and where you can grow with a business that has both family values and international backing.

What you’ll be doing:

• Overseeing fire door projects from start to finish, making sure performance, quality, and compliance are spot on.
• Managing a team of coordinators, surveyors, and estimators – keeping workloads realistic and morale high.
• Acting as the go-to point of escalation for clients and ensuring excellent communication.
• Handling subcontractor performance, holding reviews, and driving accountability.
• Carrying out estimates, tenders, procurement, and quality checks.
• Keeping systems, reports, and online records up to date and accurate.
• Balancing the office-based side of the role with site visits when needed.
• Reporting directly to senior management with regular updates and reconciliations.

What you’ll bring:

• A proven background in fire door inspection and installation, backed by qualifications such as the FDIS Diploma or equivalent.
• IOSH Managing Safely (or similar) under your belt.
• Strong leadership skills, with experience managing a team.
• A process-driven mindset – thorough, organised, and confident making tough calls when needed.
• The ability to work quickly but carefully in a fast-paced environment.
• Professional communication skills, both written and verbal.
