Careers

Welcome to the Inner Circle

We’re 49% employee-owned, offer flexible working that fits real life, and provide benefits built around our people.

We’re growing and creating opportunities for people who want to learn, get involved, and make a real difference to construction and building safety.

People don’t just join Safer Sphere. They become part of Safer Sphere.

Our CARE values – competence, ambition, relationships and excellence – shape how we work, support each other, and keep raising standards across the built environment.

Our team brings experience from building safety, regulations, CDM, fire safety, compliance, design and construction. What connects us is a shared approach: clear advice, practical thinking, strong relationships and a real commitment to safer outcomes.

No one is expected to know everything from day one. We encourage questions, share knowledge, and work together so everyone feels supported, builds confidence and keeps moving forward.

Our CARE values

Competence

We bring knowledge, sound judgement and a commitment to keep learning.

Ambition

We look for better ways to work, develop and raise standards.

Relationships

We build trust through open communication, collaboration and respect.

Excellence

We take pride in doing things properly and delivering work that matters.

“I’m surrounded by highly skilled professionals who are passionate about driving positive change in the industry. There’s a real team spirit here, with everyone working towards the same goal, and that makes it a great place to be. If you’re looking for a role where you’re supported, challenged, and surrounded by passionate experts, Safer Sphere is the place to be. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Safer Sphere to anyone considering a move into Building Safety or looking for a supportive, forward-thinking environment to grow their career.”

People don’t just join Safer Sphere, they become part of Safer Sphere

When you join Safer Sphere, you become part of our business.

Feel connected

We believe people do their best work when they feel trusted, informed and connected. With a structured induction, ongoing learning, approachable teams and open conversations, we help you understand how we work, where you fit and how you can make an impact.

Share in our success

Safer Sphere is 49% employee-owned through our Employee Benefit Trust, which holds shares for our people. Once you’ve completed your probation, you can take part in our profit-sharing scheme.

When Safer Sphere does well, our people share in that success.

As we grow, we’re committed to keeping Safer Sphere personal. That means practical support, access to experienced colleagues and a culture where you feel comfortable asking questions, sharing ideas and contributing to the wider business.

If the business does well, everyone benefits.

"The team has supported me by answering any queries I may have without making me feel silly for asking. They regularly state, “No such thing as a stupid question, just ask away.” They have provided training sessions on all parts of the job. We have fortnightly training sessions with the Associate Director of the Building Safety team, going through the reasons behind the prescribed document, training on HRB-related questions, helping to understand building regulations, and anything that we are querying about."

Alice Freeman - Technical Administrator
