    Brief

    The National Gallery is seeking an experienced Fire Engineering Consultant to lead fire safety strategy and coordination for a new building development integrated with the existing National Gallery estate on Trafalgar Square, London. This is a complex, high-profile project in a sensitive cultural heritage and urban context requiring specialist expertise. The successful consultant will develop and coordinate comprehensive fire strategy covering means of escape, compartmentation, smoke control, evacuation procedures, phased occupation, and operational continuity. Key responsibilities include advising on fire safety matters, supporting regulatory approvals (planning and Building Regulations), liaising with London Fire Brigade and Building Control, coordinating with architects and engineering disciplines, and managing fire safety considerations across existing buildings and heritage-sensitive environments. The consultant must have proven experience delivering fire engineering services on comparable projects involving cultural institutions, civic buildings, or heritage contexts within the United Kingdom. The role extends from initial design through construction, handover, and operational phases, requiring sustained engagement and technical guidance throughout the project lifecycle.
