The Consultant Engineer I at FM provides risk management and industrial property insurance solutions by performing site assessments and evaluating hazards at commercial properties. They leverage their engineering expertise to identify and mitigate risks such as fires, explosions, and natural disasters, working independently with minimal supervision.

FM is one of the world’s largest risk management and industrial property insurance organizations. With 76 office locations in over 60 countries worldwide, FM provides specialized property protection to over one third of the FORTUNE 1000 companies as well as leading international corporations. A new Field Engineer at FM will learn to engineer risk management solutions from experienced mentors and a community-based work culture.

What makes FM unique is our culture of camaraderie with colleagues and clients, the challenging work, and the excitement of being part of a successful organization. We believe in a supportive work/life environment and encourage our employees to participate in our total rewards benefit program, including a pension program.

As a Seattle area-based Consultant Engineer, you will have opportunities to travel to the following states: California, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Nevada, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, and Alaska.

Initially, assignments will be of limited scope and complexity giving you the opportunity to learn.

Responsibilities will include:

  • Perform hands-on site assessments of the physical property, including roofs
  • Conduct evaluations which include, but are not limited to, site water supplies, dust hazards, chemical storage, and rack storage arrangements for client products
  • Ensure that FM Engineering Standards are followed and, as necessary communicate the appropriate recommendations and/or engineering solutions to clients
  • Working from a home office and travel to clients' facilities daily (overnight travel is expected approximately 30% of the time)
