This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing multi-disciplinary internal team, with opportunities to inform and drive team development.

Qualities and skills required

  • Evidence of strong professional conduct; including ethical working under pressure.

  • Evidence of making evidence-based decisions and recommendations within an ambiguous and fast-moving context.

  • Proven ability to apply rigorous and accurate engineering approaches to safety. For example, qualitative and quantitative risk assessment, probabilistic and deterministic analysis.

  • Evidence of the ability to sensitively balance complex and interrelated objectives. For example, cost, programme, fire safety, carbon, quality, and constructability.

  • Proven ability to foster and maintain strong cooperative relationships across a complex organisational landscape.

  • Willingness to nurture knowledge of other disciplines related to fire safety and fire engineering.

  • Good interpersonal skills, proven ability to interact with and adapt to a diverse range of people, and the ability to work well in a team.

  • Chartered Engineer with a relevant professional engineering institution.

  • Over 5 years of experience in fire engineering or related discipline role.

  • Experience of structural fire engineering, façade fire engineering, and/or fire experimentation.

  • Experience in the use of advanced engineering methods. For example, CFD-based modelling, FEA analysis, quantitative probabilistic/reliability analysis.

  • Experience with the use of Matlab, Python, R, or similar, to carry out data analysis, automation, and/or model development.

  • Experience with BIM, Rhino, Grasshopper or similar to carry out parametric design and multi-objective optimisation.

  • Experience with a range of international regulatory and guidance frameworks (e.g. US, China, UAE).

  • Demonstrated good network with the fire science, fire engineering, and wider community.

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Data Science: Embracing the Next Frontier

Data science has undergone a staggering transformation in the past decade, evolving from a niche academic discipline into a linchpin of modern industry. Across every sector—finance, healthcare, retail, manufacturing—data scientists have become indispensable, leveraging statistical methods and machine learning to turn raw information into actionable insights. Yet as datasets grow ever larger and machine learning models become more computationally expensive, there are genuine questions about how far current methods can be pushed. Enter quantum computing, a nascent but promising technology grounded in the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Often dismissed just a few years ago as purely experimental, quantum computing is quickly gaining traction as prototypes evolve into cloud-accessible machines. When paired with artificial intelligence—particularly in the realm of data science—the results could be game-changing. From faster model training and complex optimisation to entirely new forms of data analysis, quantum-enhanced AI stands poised to disrupt established practices and create new opportunities. In this article, we will: Explore how data science has reached its current limits in certain areas, and why classical hardware might no longer suffice. Provide an accessible overview of quantum computing concepts and how they differ from classical systems. Examine the potential of quantum-enhanced AI to solve key data science challenges, from data wrangling to advanced machine learning. Highlight real-world applications, emerging job roles, and the skills you need to thrive in this new landscape. Offer actionable steps for data professionals eager to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving field. Whether you’re a practising data scientist, a student weighing up your future specialisations, or an executive curious about the next technological leap, read on. The quantum era may be closer than you think, and it promises to radically transform the very fabric of data science.
