Wintech strenghten fire engineering division with two new appointments
Wintech Group are pleased to announce the strengthening of the Fire Engineering Division, with Rizwan Mirza joining as Senior Fire Engineer and Lijesh Raju joining as Graduate Fire Engineer.
Paul Savidge MD, commented, “We are delighted to welcome both Rizwan and Lijesh. Rizwan brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience to expand the company’s offering, with experience of working across a broad range of projects within multiple sectors, including new residential and commercial buildings. Rizwan has a wealth of technical fire safety and construction experience gained within the commercial and local government sectors. As a new graduate, this will be Lijesh’s first role in façade engineering following the completion of his Master’s in Fire Safety Engineering. The new appointments will provide further support to the growing divison.”
Speaking about his appointment, Rizwan commented: “Since joining the team, I’ve already started to work on numerous projects over a variety of sectors throughout the region, engaging with key stakeholders over the new sections of the Building Safety Act, which came into force on October 1st. The need for high-risk buildings to be registered with the regulator, combined with the new gateway regime and dutyholder responsibilities, all pose a series of challenges for the industry.”
“With these changes, it is vital to ensure competent expert advice in order to ensure alignment with the new requirements. Wintech are already working with several clients nationally to meet the obligations of the BSA. Wintech’s dual expertise in fire and façade engineering provides excellent value to clients, compliance with regulations, and a positive impact on the built environment.”
Lijesh further commemted: “The opportunity to work with such a talented team and to grow both personally and professionally is a dream come true. I’m eager to embrace new challenges, learn from my colleagues, and make a positive impact on the company’s mission.”
