Full Job Description
This is a vital frontline role focused on safeguarding and protecting vulnerable individuals through the delivery of targeted, high quality home safety interventions across South Yorkshire. Home Fire Safety Advisors work directly with individuals, families and communities to identify and reduce fire risk, promote safer behaviours, and ensure appropriate support is in place for those most at risk of harm or neglect.
The role involves planning and delivering high risk Home Fire Safety Visits, managing single agency cases, and working closely with partner organisations to support individuals with complex needs. You will be responsible for accurately recording case activity, making safeguarding referrals where required, and escalating complex cases to the Senior Home Fire Safety Advisor in line with organisational procedures.
You will regularly engage with vulnerable individuals, requiring strong interpersonal skills, professional judgement and the ability to work with empathy and resilience. The role includes partnership working with local authorities, health services, voluntary organisations and other agencies to ensure joined up, effective interventions.
