You'll be working in a recession-proof sector with a minimum 3-year contract, providing excellent long-term security and stability in an industry with growing demand for security-cleared professionals.

Real autonomy and responsibility - Work independently across MOD sites, make technical decisions within high-security environments, build relationships with defence clients, and see your expertise directly contribute to the safety of critical defence infrastructure and business growth.

Other benefits include:

• Flexible Benefits: Holiday purchase scheme allowing additional time off
• Healthcare: Comprehensive health care coverage
• Employee Referral Program: Financial incentives for successful candidate referrals

The role

You'll be working with the Ministry of Defence across various military and defence establishments to ensure their buildings meet fire safety regulations and MOD-specific requirements. It's varied work that combines technical expertise with client interaction in high-security environments.

Day-to-day responsibilities: You'll be surveying MOD buildings and facilities to assess compartmentation and passive fire protection, carrying out door inspections (some requiring FDIS certification) and identifying compartmentation line errors. Working with building drawings (including classified documentation) to understand fire ratings, you'll sometimes conduct destructive surveys to uncover hidden issues, then create detailed lists of defects and develop practical solutions. Beyond the technical surveying work, you'll review quotations from your findings, work closely with Health Check Managers and the Operations team, and meet with MOD clients and personnel to explain survey results and the importance of addressing identified issues. You'll also provide ongoing technical support on MOD properties and help Project Managers with your building knowledge and expertise, all while maintaining strict security protocols.

What we need from you

Essential:

• Good understanding of fire safety regulations
• Previous compartmentation and/or door surveying experience
• Ability to read construction drawings (including working with sensitive/classified documents)
• Strong communication skills and ability to work within secure environments
• Comfortable with IT (Microsoft Office, tablet software)
• Full driving licence
• Eye for detail and practical problem-solving approach
• Ability to obtain and maintain UK security clearance (fully funded by the company)
• Willingness to commit to a minimum 3-year contract
• Understanding of and ability to comply with MOD security protocols

Ideal:

• FDIS certification would be great
• Previous experience working on government or MOD projects
• Existing security clearance (BPSS level)
• Commercial awareness
• Happy working independently in controlled environments
• Interest in continuous learning and security awareness training

Important Information:

This is a minimum 3-year contract position working exclusively on MOD high-security projects. All security clearance costs will be fully funded by the company.

Commercial Quantity Surveyor

Location: Plymouth
Contract: Full-time, Permanent
Salary: Competitive

Join Ventro – A fast‑growing leader in fire safety across the UK.

At Ventro, we do things Right From The start. We operate with a Day One mindset - always improving, always building - and we believe in Extreme Ownership, where everyone takes responsibility for delivering results.

We’re expanding our Commercial team and looking for a commercially sharp, detail‑driven Quantity Surveyor who thrives in a fast‑paced environment and takes full ownership of their work. If you love numbers, negotiations, and keeping projects financially tight, this is your role.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Owning project budgets, cost control, and financial forecasting from Day One
• Managing variations, valuations, invoicing, and commercial documentation right from the start to avoid issues downstream
• Negotiating subcontractor pricing and supporting labour‑related decisions with commercial confidence
• Maintaining positive cash flow and producing accurate GP1/GP2 reports
• Acting as a commercial escalation point, taking extreme ownership to proactively manage and avoid disputes
• Working closely with Project Managers, subcontractors, and clients to ensure commercial clarity and alignment

Why This Role Stands Out

• Office‑based commercial focus—ideal for QSs who prefer financial and contractual ownership over site‑heavy roles
• High‑impact position where your decisions directly influence profitability, cash flow, and performance
• Fast‑moving environment with multiple concurrent projects that reward a Day One mindset
• Supportive, collaborative commercial team that values accountability, clarity, and progression

What We’re Looking For

• Strong negotiation skills and sharp commercial awareness
• Ability to analyse project financials and maintain GP1/GP2 performance
• Confident communicator who takes ownership and pays attention to detail
• Proficient in Excel and commercial reporting
• Strong understanding of contracts, variations, valuations, and dispute avoidance

Why Join Ventro?

You’ll be part of a high‑performing team delivering essential fire compliance and life‑safety work across the region. At Ventro, we believe in getting things right from the start, approaching every role with a Day One mindset, and taking extreme ownership of our responsibilities.

You’ll influence safety, quality, client satisfaction, and operational performance - all within an environment that values clarity, accountability, and professional growth.

Project Manager – Fire Compliance & Construction

Description:

Warden Call & Access Control Engineer

Location: Coventry

Pay: £35,000.00-£43,000.00 

Keep Life-Critical Systems Running. Make a Real Difference.

Are you a skilled engineer who wants more than just turning up and turning a spanner? Join HJS (Harrold-Jones Services), part of the Ventro Group, and take on a field-based role where your expertise genuinely matters. The systems you maintain keep vulnerable people safe – warden call units in sheltered housing, door entry to healthcare facilities, and access control across commercial and residential properties. When you fix a fault, real lives are better protected.

We’re a growing, connected team that values independence and trust. You’ll have the autonomy to manage your own day, your own van, and your own workload – backed by a supportive office team and colleagues who’ll share knowledge and have your back when you need it. No micromanagement. Just high standards and the freedom to do the job properly.

Why This Role?

Work That Actually Matters: Every system you maintain is life-critical. Warden call systems protect elderly and vulnerable residents. Access control secures healthcare facilities. Door entry keeps communities safe. You’re not just fixing boxes – you’re a key part of keeping people protected.

Variety Every Single Day: No two days are the same. You’ll move between healthcare, housing, commercial, and residential sites across the UK, working across leading platforms including Paxton, Tynetec, Tunstall, and Comelit. From reactive call-outs to new installations, you’ll keep your technical skills sharp.

Real Career Development: HJS invests in its engineers. You’ll receive funded manufacturer training, support towards qualifications, and the opportunity to grow your skills across an increasingly broad range of systems. As the team grows, there are real pathways to senior and mentoring roles for those who want them.

Autonomy & Trust: You’ll be trusted to manage your own diary, your van, and your workload. We set high standards, then we let you get on with it. Regular team catch-ups mean you’re never isolated, but day-to-day you’re your own boss on site.

Other benefits include:

Company Vehicle: Fully equipped van with specialist tools and diagnostic equipment provided

Flexible Benefits: Holiday purchase scheme allowing additional time off

Healthcare: Comprehensive healthcare coverage

Employee Referral Programme: Financial incentives for successful candidate referrals

Sustainable Transport: Cycle-to-work scheme supporting environmental initiatives

Company Rewards: Access to employee discount schemes and recognition programmes

Professional Development: Fully funded manufacturer training and role-specific qualifications to support career growth

On-Call Supplement: Additional pay for participation in the out-of-hours on-call rota

What You’ll Do

You’ll carry out planned preventative maintenance and reactive repairs across door entry, access control, and warden call systems. Working independently across multiple client sites, you’ll diagnose and resolve faults on platforms including Paxton, Tynetec (XT2 and Reach Digital), Tunstall, and Comelit - hitting first-time fix targets and attending warden call callouts within contracted response windows.

You’ll also install and commission new systems – from wiring and containment through to handover documentation – and provide end-user training to clients across healthcare, housing, and commercial settings. Accurate job records, compliance with BS 7671 and health and safety legislation, and a safety-first mindset on every site are central to everything you do.

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

• 3–5 years’ hands-on experience with door entry, access control, or warden/nurse call systems
• NVQ Level 3 or 18th Edition (City & Guilds 2391 or equivalent)
• Strong fault-finding and diagnostic skills across integrated electronic systems
• Installation and commissioning experience including wiring and containment (BS 7671)
• Experience across at least two sectors: healthcare, housing, commercial, or residential
• Full clean UK driving licence
• CSCS card, Asbestos Awareness, Manual Handling, and Health & Safety certificates
• DBS check required prior to appointment
• Confident, professional communication with clients, housing officers, and healthcare staff
• Ability to manage your own workload and prioritise reactive call-outs to meet SLAs
• Must hold CSCS card and relevant H&S certifications (Asbestos Awareness, Manual Handling)

Ideal:

• Someone who thrives on variety and takes genuine pride in work that protects vulnerable people
• Enjoys technical problem-solving across complex, integrated systems
• Self-motivated and reliable – works well without direct supervision
• Manufacturer experience on Tynetec, Tunstall, or Paxton platforms

Description:

Internal Recruiter - Full-Time

Location - Plymouth

About Ventro Group

Ventro Group is a specialist fire safety and building compliance business operating through three established brands - Ventro, Firntec, and HJS. Backed by leading European private equity firm KLAR Partners, we're on an ambitious growth trajectory - scaling our workforce, expanding our service lines, and acquiring businesses that strengthen our position as a market leader in life safety.

This isn't steady-state recruitment. This is building something.

The Role

We're looking for an Internal Recruiter to join our in-house Talent Acquisition team and play a hands-on role in hiring the people who will drive this business forward. You'll work across a diverse requisition load spanning technical, operational, and specialist roles - from Fire Alarm Engineers and Façade Engineers to Project Managers, Estimators, and beyond.

You won't just post adverts and wait. You'll headhunt, you'll build talent pipelines, you'll challenge hiring managers, and you'll own your desk like it matters - because it does. Every hire you make directly supports a business that keeps people safe in their homes and workplaces.

What You'll Be Doing

Working as part of a small, high-performing TA function, you'll manage the full recruitment lifecycle from intake through to offer. That means partnering with stakeholders across all three brands, sourcing candidates through direct search and job boards, screening with a critical eye, and guiding hiring managers through structured, competency-based selection. You'll contribute to talent pool development, employer brand activity, and the continuous improvement of our recruitment processes and compliance standards.

What We're Looking For

This role needs someone with genuine recruitment pedigree - you've done the miles, whether in-house or agency, and you know how to find good people in difficult markets. Ideally, you'll have worked in a technical, construction, engineering, or building services environment and you'll understand what a strong CV looks like in that world - and, just as importantly, what a polished CV is trying to hide.

Beyond the experience, we need the right character. You've got fire in the belly. You take ownership. You don't wait to be told. You build relationships with hiring managers based on trust and credibility, and you're not afraid to push back when the brief doesn't stack up. You understand that great recruitment isn't transactional - it's consultative, it's strategic, and it's relentless.

In short, you'll bring:

• Proven experience in a recruitment role (agency or in-house), ideally within construction, engineering, fire safety, building services, or a similarly technical sector
• The ability to read between the lines of a CV - spotting potential, identifying risk, and making sound judgement calls
• Strong stakeholder management skills - you can advise, influence, and challenge at all levels
• A proactive, driven mindset you source, you chase, you close-
• Familiarity with ATS platforms, LinkedIn Recruiter, and Boolean search techniques
• A genuine passion for doing recruitment properly

Why Ventro Group?

You'll be joining a PE-backed business with serious investment behind it and significant growth plans ahead. This is a chance to be part of something that's scaling fast, where your contribution is visible and your development isn't capped. You'll work in a TA function that's been built from the ground up with proper governance, structured processes, and a commitment to doing things the right way.

If you want a role where you can make a real impact - not just fill seats - we want to hear from you.

To apply, send your CV and a brief note on why this role appeals to you.

• Contributing to valuations, invoices, and cash flow processes alongside the commercial team
• Identifying commercial risks and opportunities across both tenders and live works
• Maintaining pricing data, cost libraries, and commercial documentation
• Collaborating with Project Managers and delivery teams to ensure pricing is achievable, compliant, and profitable
• Ensuring all outputs align with Building Regulations Part B and relevant fire safety standards

This role is ideal for someone who takes a consultative approach to client engagement while maintaining the commercial focus to protect margin and deliver sustainable value.

Skills

• Strong commercial and numerical capability, with experience supporting pricing, cost planning, or project financials

• Competence in both pre-construction support (pricing/tenders) and post-contract commercial processes
• High attention to detail and accuracy in financial and technical information
• Effective communication and stakeholder collaboration skills
• Proficiency in MS Office (especially Excel) and exposure to estimating or commercial systems

Knowledge

• Understanding of passive fire protection systems including fire stopping, fire doors, and compartmentation
• Knowledge of Building Regulations Part B and fire safety compliance requirements
• Awareness of construction cost build-ups, pricing structures, and commercial processes
• Understanding of project lifecycle from tender through to final account

Experience

• Background in construction, fire protection, or a related built environment sector
• Experience in estimating, commercial support, or quantity surveying (or a blend of these)
• Exposure to tendering, pricing, or bid support activities

• Ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment with multiple priorities

Right from the Start - Get it right first time, take pride in quality, and always deliver for the customer.
Extreme Ownership - Own your outcomes, understand your impact, and bring solutions not problems.
Day 1 Mindset - Stay hungry, stay lean, put the customer first, and be better today than yesterday.
