Health and Safety Advisor

We Care!

That’s why we need people like you who care about your colleagues and customers as well as our business and the environment. People who appreciate their role in helping others to be successful.

Are you passionate about creating a safe and secure working environment? We are seeking a dedicated qualified Health and Safety Advisor to join our UKPN contract team, specifically covering our work within major projects and developer services.

As a key player in the energy industry, you will have the opportunity to shape and enhance our health and safety culture.

The Role

We need your help to inspire and help our busy operational colleagues execute their work consistently, using “best in class” health and safety practices. We’ll leave you to decide how best to do this, although we know that you won’t be standing on the side-lines holding a clipboard and grimacing.

We’ll support and encourage your naturally inquisitive nature as you seek to understand the operational challenges your colleagues face on site. We’ll be looking for practical H&S solutions and helpful advice delivered in a style that motivates your audience. We’ll encourage you to create communications strategies which resonate and inspire from in-person conversation to video and podcasts.

Here are just some of the activities you’ll be getting involved with:

• Carrying out ABC tours (Attitude, Behaviours and Culture)
• Execute comprehensive inspections for safety compliance and hazard identification.
• Advise on and set safety objectives aligned with project goals.
• Support thorough investigations and ensure compliance with corrective actions.
• Assess external environments, identify gaps, and recommend improvements.
• Develop and implement safety initiatives; share best practices with colleagues.
• Advise on and communicate new practices to ensure legislative compliance.
• Actively encourage Safety Observations and Hazard Reporting.

We would love to hear from you if you can demonstrate…

• Applicants should possess strong communication and interpersonal skills, enabling effective interaction with stakeholders.
• Analytical and problem-solving abilities are crucial for assessing and mitigating risks.
• The role also requires effective collaboration with cross-functional teams to ensure a unified approach to health and safety throughout the organisation.
• NEBOSH General Certification or equivalent i.e., HNC in Construction as a minimum and a Tech IOSH Membership.
• Prior experience in a health and safety role, preferably in the energy or utilities sector, is highly advantageous.
• A solid grasp of health and safety legislation and regulations is also essential.

This is a field based regional role so a full UK driving licence is necessary
