Aylesford, Kent

Are you an experienced SHEQ professional who enjoys being out on site, driving standards and making a real impact rather than sitting behind a desk all day?
We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established engineering services business looking for a confident SHEQ Advisor to take ownership of health, safety, environmental and quality compliance across multiple operational sites.
This isn't a role where you'll be starting from scratch. Strong systems, accreditations and procedures are already established - your focus will be on maintaining high standards, carrying out audits, supporting operational teams and continually improving compliance across the business.
You'll work closely with engineers, managers and operational teams, so we're looking for someone who can build relationships, challenge where necessary and confidently influence people at all levels.
The Role
Reporting into senior management, you'll take responsibility for maintaining the company's SHEQ systems and ensuring continued compliance across both office and operational environments.
Responsibilities will include:
Conducting regular site audits and inspections
Managing and maintaining ISO accreditations and compliance standards
Supporting investigations, corrective actions and continuous improvement initiatives
Reviewing risk assessments and safe systems of work
Providing practical SHEQ advice to operational teams and managers
Monitoring legislation and ensuring business compliance
Supporting internal and external audits
Maintaining SHEQ documentation, records and reporting
Promoting a positive safety culture across the organisation
Occasional travel to regional depots and customer sites
About You
We're interested in personality just as much as experience.
You'll be someone who enjoys being visible within a business, can confidently engage with engineering teams and isn't afraid to challenge when required.
You'll ideally have:
NEBOSH General Certificate (essential)
Experience within a SHEQ, HSE or Compliance role
Strong auditing experience, ideally involving ISO 9001, 14001 and/or 45001
Experience managing or supporting accreditations and compliance systems
Experience producing or reviewing RAMS
Excellent communication and influencing skills
A full UK driving licence
Experience within engineering, manufacturing, utilities, facilities management or another fast-paced operational environment
IOSH membership would be advantageous but isn't essential.
What's on Offer?
Salary up to £45,000 depending on experience
Car allowance
Structured training and professional development
Genuine investment in qualifications and career progression
Company pension
Additional annual leave
Employee discounts
Company events
Long-term career with an established and growing organisation
If you're looking for a varied SHEQ role where you can genuinely influence standards, work with operational teams and continue developing your career, we'd love to hear from you.
