OFR is an independent fire engineering business with a desire to give back to the great towns and cities it works in across the UK. The organisation has one remit, the delivery of high-quality advice across all building project stages.
The company’s internal ownership ensures responsibility, agility, and client focus; the people that own OFR are those delivering projects to clients on a day-to-day basis.
OFR’s team expanded through reinvestment of revenue and organic growth, and delivery hubs were established in seven UK cities for over 100 permanent staff serving clients from project conception, through planning, design, construction, operation, and legacy dispute resolution.
OFR is developing solutions for headquarters of the world’s largest organisations to boutique local projects and pro-bono charity work. The company believes that every scheme matters to each client and delivers the same quality of advice, no matter what the project is.
The company’s values are Design, Implementation, and Research.
Design is delivering advice on the statutory and commercial requirements for fire safety in buildings.
Implementation reflects a commitment to support construction stages and buildings in operation.
Research within OFR delivers support for commercial clients, trade bodies and government alongside its own self-funded research into prescient topics. The latest findings feed into its Design and Implementation work so OFR can remain at the forefront of technical excellence.
My team is fun to work with
OFR is committed to its agile work. However, all staff got together for a few days at Rookery Hall Hotel and Spa – and the organisation has ensured that such events will continue. It acknowledges that agile working facilitates its successful delivery service, but the bonds formed when the team meet together are what make
I believe I can make a valuable contribution to the success of this organisation
New starters, particularly the junior staff, are given a “Buddy” that they can turn to for advice and to help settle them into OFR and their new role. For example, a new graduate starting their first job will be assigned a Buddy that has recently completed the graduate programme and can act as a guide.
My organisation encourages charitable activities
OFR has further developed its pioneering Better Days programme, encouraging colleagues to volunteer their skills for charitable causes and give back to the great towns and cities it works in across the UK. By providing each staff member with two days of paid leave, this initiative promotes community involvement.
