Construction Safety Advisor – Airport Projects
Salary: £45,000 - £55,000 plus onsite bonus + car allowance
Location: Birmingham, West Midlands
Contract: Permanent, full-time
Working pattern: Rota-based, including late and night shifts
Start: ASAP
The role
I’m recruiting a Construction Safety Advisor to support live construction projects at Birmingham Airport. It’s a site-based role on a busy, operational airport, where safety standards are high and the work has to fit around a live environment. Part of the work happens at night, so you must be comfortable working late and night shifts on a rota.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll carry out site inspections, audits and compliance checks, and support compliance with CDM Regulations 2015. You’ll review risk assessments, method statements and safe systems of work, and coordinate permits to work and contractor activity on site.
You’ll also investigate incidents and follow up on corrective actions. You’ll give practical H&S advice, challenge unsafe practices and help build a positive safety culture, working closely with project teams, contractors and airport stakeholders.
What you’ll need
You’ll need experience as a Health & Safety Advisor on construction projects, a NEBOSH General Certificate or NEBOSH Construction Certificate, and a sound working knowledge of CDM Regulations 2015.
For airport security vetting, you’ll need a full, checkable 5-year employment history (verified through HMRC records) and the ability to pass a DBS check. You must also be willing to work late and night shifts on a rota.
Desirable
Experience in aviation or airport environments, SMSTS and First Aid at Work would all be an advantage.
Who it suits
A hands-on construction safety advisor who wants a permanent role on high-profile airport projects and is happy with shift work.
