What Our Team Has to Say
"The great advantage of working in a fire safety consultancy is that you are surrounded by experts in the field. If fire safety is your passion and you join a project developer or a consultancy specializing in technical installations, you often find yourself isolated as a fire safety expert, overwhelmed by stacks of documentation without knowing where to start. That’s why I wanted to begin my career among experts—to learn from them. After all, I had my Fire Safety Engineering degree, but my practical knowledge was still limited."
- Wout Verborgt, Lead Engineer
"One of the great things about the company is the opportunity to take initiative. While we are part of a large international group, strategy and daily operations are primarily decided at a local level. In Belgium, our team consists of people with different ages, educational backgrounds, and areas of expertise. Internal discussions and collaborations allow us to learn from one another. Our weekly or monthly team meetings are the perfect moment to propose new initiatives, which are always highly appreciated by everyone."
- Simon Loosvelt, Project Manager
The Jensen Hughes Experience
"In our young and driven team, new colleagues are given full freedom and trust to work on challenging projects. Our intensive internal guidance ensures that, regardless of your educational background, you can quickly grow into a true expert. You learn by doing: making mistakes here is seen as an opportunity to improve, not something to avoid. Additionally, with flexible working hours, we maintain an ideal balance between work and personal life."
- Tibo De Coessemaeker, Lead Engineer
