Are you a site-focused Health & Safety Advisor who enjoys being visible, practical and close to the work being delivered? This is a newly created opportunity to join a growing UK project team, supporting major construction, automation, logistics and engineering-led projects across the UK.

As Health & Safety Advisor, you will play a key role in keeping complex project environments safe, compliant and well controlled. The first project is expected to be in Doncaster, with a Keele office base, although where you live in the UK is less important than your ability to travel and be on site.


As Health & Safety Advisor, you will:

• Provide practical health and safety advice to project teams, installation teams, contractors and site stakeholders
• Support construction, automation, logistics and engineering project environments
• Act as a key H&S point of contact on project sites
• Attend project and construction meetings, providing clear HSE input
• Work closely with project managers, construction supervisors, principal contractors, subcontractors and client-side representatives
• Carry out site inspections, audits and safety checks across construction zones and operational areas
• Review and support risk assessments, method statements and supply chain documentation
• Identify hazards and advise on suitable control measures
• Support high-risk works including lifting operations, temporary works, work at height, machinery installation and heavy machinery environments
• Monitor compliance with PPE, safe systems of work, site rules and emergency procedures
• Support incident, accident and near-miss investigations
• Document findings, identify root causes and help ensure corrective actions are completed
• Maintain safety records, compliance documentation and quality-related logs
• Support environmental compliance and promote safe, responsible working practices
• Deliver or support toolbox talks, briefings and safety training
• Help build a positive, proactive safety culture across site teams

The Health & Safety Advisor will ideally have:

• Experience working in health and safety, construction management or a related field
• Strong knowledge of construction site safety and project-based environments
• NEBOSH General Certificate, NEBOSH Construction or similar
• CSCS or similar site safety credentials
• Temporary Works Supervisor, Temporary Works Coordinator or similar knowledge
• Appointed Person for Lifting or similar experience
• Machine safety knowledge, including Level 3 or similar
• Knowledge of CDM Regulations
• Experience around automation, logistics, machinery installation or engineering-led projects
• Confidence working around heavy machinery and at height
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Sound judgement and the ability to work independently
• Good Microsoft Office skills, including Excel, PowerPoint, Access and Project
• The ability to influence people at all levels in a practical and professional way

What's in it for you
This Health & Safety Advisor role offers:

• Salary of circa £55,000
• 40-hour working week
• Newly created position due to growth
• Involvement in major UK project delivery
• Exposure to construction, automation, logistics and engineering environments
• A highly visible, site-based role where your input will make a real impact
• Travel expenses reimbursed in line with HMRC mileage rates
• Accommodation arranged and usually paid for when overnight stays are required
• Support from a wider H&S team
• The opportunity to influence safety standards across complex project sites
• A role where you can build trusted relationships with project teams, contractors and stakeholders

Success as Health & Safety Advisor will come from being visible, proactive and trusted on site. You will help project teams understand risk, maintain safe systems of work and keep safety standards high without slowing progress unnecessarily.

You will be someone who can spot issues early, communicate clearly and support safe delivery across complex project environments. Your work will directly contribute to safer sites, stronger compliance and successful project outcomes.
