This is an excellent opportunity for someone with solid Health & Safety experience who is looking to further develop their career within a challenging and varied environment. The business is keen to attract someone with strong foundations in Health & Safety who is eager to learn, take ownership and grow alongside the organisation.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Conducting regular site inspections and safety audits
• Identifying risks, compliance issues and areas for improvement
• Tracking and following through corrective actions to completion
• Maintaining statutory inspections, certifications and compliance records
• Supporting incident investigations, near miss reporting and accident management
• Assisting with contractor management, permits to work and RAMS reviews

• Developing and reviewing risk assessments, procedures and safety documentation
• Coordinating compliance actions arising from insurers, audits and inspections
• Producing regular Health & Safety reports and management information
• Working closely with operational teams while providing independent compliance oversight
