Caerphilly, CF83 | Hybrid, with UK-wide site travel
£40,000 – £45,000 | Full-time, 40 hours per week
Safety is about people, not paperwork. If you agree, we'd love to hear from you.
Our client part of a UK Group employing circa 300 people, installs and maintains electrical, mechanical and instrumentation equipment for clients across the UK. We're looking for a hands-on HSEQ Advisor to be the go-to HSEQ person for the business, someone who'd rather be out on site building a great safety culture than stuck behind a desk.
You'll work day to day alongside the Site Manager and our operational teams, while also being a full member of the Group SHEQ team, with a SHEQ Manager who'll back you, support you and invest in your development. It's the best of both worlds: real ownership of your own patch, with a strong team behind you.
What you'll be getting stuck into -
Embedding our Group integrated management system across the company and keeping our ISO 45001, 14001 and 9001 certifications in great shape, including internal audits, hosting certification audits and closing out actions
Giving practical, down-to-earth advice to managers, supervisors and field teams, and working with them on risk assessments, method statements, safe systems of work and COSHH, covering confined spaces, lone working, work at height, driving and electrical/mechanical work
Getting out and about with a programme of site inspections and audits across the UK
Leading incident and near-miss investigations, getting to the root cause and sharing what we learn
Delivering inductions, toolbox talks and briefings, and making sure our people hold the right training and cards
Supporting CDM 2015 duties, contractor and supplier management, and our environmental and quality processes
Working with client safety teams and producing a monthly HSEQ performance report
What you'll bring
NEBOSH General Certificate or an equivalent Level 3 qualification
Health and safety advisory experience supporting a field-based or operational workforce
Hands-on experience with risk assessments, method statements, site inspections and incident investigations
Experience working within an ISO 45001-certified management system
Solid knowledge of UK H&S law, including CDM 2015, Confined Spaces, COSHH, PUWER, work at height and RIDDOR
The confidence to communicate with, and influence, people at every level, plus a pragmatic, proportionate approach and the backbone to challenge when it matters
A full UK driving licence
Bonus points (but don't let these hold you back)
Working towards a NEBOSH Diploma or Level 6 equivalent, Tech IOSH or above, ISO internal auditor training, water/utilities sector experience, CDM contractor or principal contractor experience, and environmental legislation knowledge. National Water Hygiene, confined space and CSCS/SHEA Water cards are a plus too, and if you don't have them, we'll train you.
