Fire Safety Management

​What Does a Fire Safety Manager Do?

A fire safety manager is responsible for safeguarding people’s lives and properties by planning, formulating, implementing, and supervising fire safety plans that take care of specific fire and life safety systems.

The line of work of a fire safety manager might have to do with working for area councils, cities, or even private establishments that may require a well-groomed manager to take care of fire safety for a particular set of properties.

In a bid to effectively carry out his/her job description, the fire safety manager works hand-in-hand with a lot of persons and in some cases, also supervises their activities.

Put differently, a fire safety managers have the responsibility to direct the activities of employees as well as provide necessary information for employees so as to make sure they understand their job functions and duties (this is usually in the process of carrying out the fire safety mission).

It is part of the role of the fire safety manager to make sure that all fire and life safety equipment are where they are meant to be at all times (within all properties/buildings).

He/she also ensures that all fire protection systems like smoke detectors, fire alarms, sprinklers, etc. are all installed properly and also functional at all times.

​St Neots /sɛnʔ ˈniːəts/[b] is a town and civil parish in the Huntingdonshire District of the county of Cambridgeshire, England, approximately 50 miles (80 km) north of central London. The town straddles the River Great Ouse and is served by a railway station on the East Coast Main Line. It is 14 miles (23 km) west of Cambridge, to which it is linked by the A428 arterial road. It is the largest town in Cambridgeshire and had a population of 30,811 in the 2011 census.[c]

The town is named after the Cornish monk Saint Neot, whose bones were moved to the Priory here from the hamlet of St Neot on Bodmin Moor in around 980 AD. Pilgrimage to the priory church and parish church brought prosperity to the settlement and the town was granted a market charter in 1130. In the 18th and 19th centuries the town enjoyed further prosperity through corn milling, brewing, stagecoach traffic and railways.

After the Second World War the town and its industry were chosen for rapid growth as London councils paid for new housing to be built to rehouse families from London. The first London overspill housing was completed in the early 1960s and new housing has continued at a slightly lower rate such that the population, including the areas transferred from Bedfordshire, is approximately four times that of the 1920s.
