Careers

"The training programme provided by JH is unparalleled, with an immediate focus on involvement in real projects. Senior staff actively encourage career progression within the company, including the opportunity to work in other office locations to gain experience of working with various local fire code standards. Personal development is also encouraged with assistance provided to achieve Chartered Engineer status. During my 15 years at JH, I have progressed from Design Engineer to Director level."

Gordon Morley, Director, Galway

"I have been fortunate enough to work internationally to assist my colleagues on multimillion pound losses in the Middle East. Working with various clients of JH and forming strong relationships has offered opportunities to work on very interesting and diverse cases."

"The most rewarding aspect of working for Jensen Hughes is being challenged and constantly learning on a day to day basis whilst contributing to major projects around the UK at the very start of my career."

Calum Annetts, Design Engineer, London

"In my position as Director of the Manchester office, the most rewarding aspect of my work is watching my junior colleagues develop as fire engineers. Their enthusiasm is infectious and I’m constantly impressed at how they respond to new challenges."

Henry Wilkinson, Director, Manchester

"As we are working on so many different projects in so many different places at the same time, not a single day is the same so the monotony does not kick in and your brain is kept sharp. It is also pretty rewarding when you can actually walk around the city and physically see the buildings you are working on being built and functioning!"

Zuzanna Feliszek, Design Engineer, Edinburgh

"A combination of site work with office work, cases of different types, large and small, complex and straight forward, working with different people day to day, both colleagues and external is what I enjoy. The work is never the same, always changing and evolving, which allows me to change and develop with it."

Eva McKiernan, Technical Director, Dublin

"Since working for Jensen Hughes I have found the benefits of working with directors and colleagues with such extensive knowledge and experience to be just one of the rewarding aspects. We're very collaborative - both professionally and socially."

Alexandra Hale, Principal Engineer, London

"What drew me to working at JH is the work culture where respect and opportunities are given to all people at all levels regardless of their background, ethnicity and gender. Technical excellence is the common currency and language for everyone that I come across in Jensen Hughes."

Eu Jin Teh, Director, Edinburgh

"When I began my career in Jensen Hughes, I received so much support from the team to help me position myself where I am today. Despite not having specialised in fire engineering, the other members of the team were kind and patient and fantastic teachers. Over the course of the past 3.5 years I’ve gained so much experience and knowledge in the industry which in invaluable."

Bridin Keogan, Senior Engineer, Dublin

"Towards the end of my time within the military, I felt that it was a natural progression to follow this line of work. I was lucky enough to be contacted by an ex serving member of London Fire Brigade Fire Investigation Unit (who had left and joined Jensen Hughes) who informed me that they were looking to employ someone, and as they say ‘the rest is history’"

Barry Wheater, Senior Investigator, London
