Last position:
HSE Manager at Ullertec GmbH
As Managing Director of Ullertec GmbH, my focus is on advising and supporting companies in the areas of occupational health and safety, workplace safety, and operational safety organization.
As a specialist for occupational safety, I support companies with safety-related services in accordance with DGUV Regulation 2, the creation and further development of risk assessments, operating instructions, and occupational safety organizations, as well as with site inspections, safety committee meetings, and the implementation of legal requirements.
Ullertec GmbH, based in Bochum, has established itself as a specialized service provider for occupational health and safety in the Ruhr area and in North Rhine-Westphalia. Our customers include companies and organizations from industry, production, logistics, skilled trades, services, and public or municipal sectors.
In addition to working as an external specialist for occupational safety, our services also include fire protection, safety and health coordination (SiGeKo), expert noise measurements, inspections of work equipment, and practical training and instruction.
A key success is the continuous building of long-term safety-related support relationships and a growing customer base. In doing so, we combine many years of industry experience with modern, structured health and safety consulting.
Our goal is not to represent health and safety only on paper. We analyze workplaces, machines, and operational processes directly on site and develop clear measures that can be implemented economically.
Ullertec stands for practical, structured, and reliable health and safety from Bochum - across the Ruhr area, in North Rhine-Westphalia, and for selected services nationwide.

About the technology
What Fire Protection Covers
Fire protection combines preventive planning, detection, alarm, containment and suppression measures that limit harm to people, buildings and operations. It is used in offices, factories, warehouses, hospitals, data centres, public buildings and transport facilities. Projects may cover a single system or the complete protection concept for a site.
Systems and Deliverables
Specialists work across fire alarm systems, sprinkler and water mist installations, gas suppression, smoke extraction, fire doors, emergency lighting and compartmentation. Typical deliverables include risk assessments, protection concepts, layouts, tender documents, inspection records and maintenance plans. They also connect technical measures with evacuation and business continuity requirements.
Standards and Coordination
Fire protection projects depend on local building requirements, insurer expectations and recognised technical rules. In Germany, professionals may coordinate with authorities, fire brigades, planners, installers and testing organisations while preparing documentation in German. Strong coordination keeps design assumptions, approvals and site execution aligned from the start.
When Companies Need Support
- A new facility needs a complete fire protection concept
- An existing site requires a risk review or system upgrade
- A construction project needs specialist coordination and documentation
- An audit identifies gaps in detection, evacuation or compartmentation
- Internal teams need support during commissioning or handover
Freelance expertise is useful when requirements change quickly, internal capacity is limited or a project needs an independent technical view. Specialists can join for planning, delivery, remediation or a defined review.
Tools and Adjacent Skills
The work can involve CAD and BIM coordination, fire modelling, hydraulic calculations, alarm and building management interfaces, inspection software and structured asset records. Useful adjacent skills include electrical systems, mechanical services, construction management, occupational safety, emergency planning and project documentation. Experience with commissioning and acceptance testing is equally important.
What Strong Specialists Bring
The best professionals translate risk into practical protection measures without losing sight of cost, operations or maintainability. They ask precise questions about occupancy, processes, storage, construction and change management. They document decisions clearly, challenge weak assumptions and communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders. Their work remains understandable after handover, not just compliant on paper.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about Fire Protection — answered in short.
Fire Protection is used to prevent fires where possible, detect them early, contain their spread and support safe evacuation or suppression. A project may combine passive measures such as compartmentation and fire doors with active systems such as alarms, sprinklers or gas suppression.
Fire Protection is the broader discipline covering prevention, detection, containment, suppression and life safety. Fire safety often focuses on the wider organisational and operational framework, while fire suppression describes the systems and actions used to control or extinguish a fire.
A strong Fire Protection specialist often understands building services, electrical systems, construction coordination and emergency planning. Experience with CAD or BIM, hydraulic calculations, alarm interfaces, commissioning and technical documentation can also be valuable.
The right level for Fire Protection depends on the building, hazards, approval path and system scope. A focused review may need a specialist who can assess an existing installation, while a new industrial or high-risk facility calls for experience across design, coordination, testing and handover.
Fire Protection planning, document reviews, drawings and coordination can often be handled remotely. Site surveys, installation checks, commissioning and acceptance activities usually require on-site work, so companies should agree on travel, language and handover expectations early.
For Fire Protection, review comparable building types, the specialist’s role in past projects and their familiarity with the relevant German approval and documentation process. Ask for examples of risk assessments, protection concepts, coordination work and commissioning support rather than relying on a title alone.
Good Fire Protection work links identified hazards to clear, maintainable measures and records the assumptions behind every decision. Check whether drawings, calculations, inspection evidence and operating instructions are consistent, complete and usable by the teams who will maintain the site.
Before starting Fire Protection work, clarify the project phase, site hazards, available drawings, existing systems, approval responsibilities and expected deliverables. It is also important to define access to stakeholders, required site presence, documentation language and who owns decisions when requirements conflict.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Fire Protection in their recent projects is 103 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 827 € based on an 8-hour working day.
