OFR Recognised as ‘World Class’ Fire Engineering Consultancy to Work For – Second Year Running

We’re pleased to share that OFR Consultants has once again been awarded a 3-star accreditation from Best Companies, recognising us as a World Class organisation to work for. 

Retaining this accreditation for a second consecutive year is a significant achievement and reflects our continued focus on creating a positive, supportive and engaging workplace culture across all of our offices. It highlights the strength of our people-first approach and our ongoing commitment to making OFR a great place to build a career in fire engineering. 

The Best Companies survey provides valuable insight into how our colleagues feel about working at OFR. This recognition is a direct reflection of that feedback, and reinforces the importance we place on listening, learning and taking meaningful action to improve employee experience across the business. 

Lucy Kirkup, HR Director at OFR Consultants, shares her thoughts on the achievement: 

“We are delighted to have continued our year-on-year improvement in employee engagement, maintaining our position in the 3-star, world-class category. This achievement reflects the strength of our culture and our commitment to listening, learning and responding to feedback. 

We would like to thank everyone across OFR who took the time to contribute to the survey and to those who continue to support and shape our business every day. Their feedback, commitment and collaboration are central to helping us improve and move forward together. 

While we are proud of this recognition, it’s also motivation to keep building on our progress. As we continue our journey as an Employee Ownership Trust, we are excited about the opportunities ahead and remain committed to creating a positive and engaging experience for our people.” 

As an employee-owned business operating at the forefront of fire safety and engineering, we recognise that our people are central to everything we do. This accreditation reflects the culture we’ve built together and our shared commitment to continuous improvement. 

We remain focused on creating an inclusive, collaborative and rewarding environment where our people can thrive, develop and make a meaningful impact across the projects and communities we support. 

We’re incredibly grateful to our team for their continued input, energy and dedication, and we look forward to building on this success together.
