We’re looking for an experienced Health & Safety Advisor to join a well-established contractor working on major HS2 infrastructure works around the Worcester area.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being out on site, working closely with project teams and subcontractors, and having a real influence on how health & safety is managed day to day.

Ideally, you’ll have:

• NEBOSH General Certificate or equivalent
• Relevant construction H&S experience
• Experience working on major infrastructure / civils projects
• Strong knowledge of CDM and current H&S legislation
• Good communication skills and the confidence to challenge unsafe practices
• A practical, hands-on approach rather than being purely office based
• CSCS / relevant H&S card
• HS2 experience would be a major advantage

What's on Offer?

This is a permanent position with a major project, offering long-term stability and the opportunity to work on one of the UK's biggest infrastructure programmes.
