At Bromford Flagship Live West, safety is everyone's responsibility. As our Health and Safety Advisor, you'll play a key role in helping colleagues work safely, confidently and compliantly while delivering services that enable people and communities to thrive.

This is far more than a compliance role. You'll build trusted relationships with operational teams, provide practical guidance that makes a real difference, and help create a positive safety culture across a complex organisation that manages homes, communities and frontline services.

You’ll work closely with managers and colleagues across the business, providing clear, practical and proportionate health and safety advice that supports effective decision-making and safe ways of working.

You’ll:

• Support managers with incident reporting, investigation and learning.
• Assist with audits, inspections and assurance activities.
• Help identify hazards and risks, supporting the implementation of practical control measures.
• Provide guidance on health and safety legislation, policy and best practice.
• Contribute to contractor management processes, including reviewing risk assessments, method statements, COSHH assessments and permit-to-work arrangements.
• Support the development of a positive and sustainable safety culture.
• Help ensure health and safety arrangements are applied consistently across the organisation.
• Work collaboratively with colleagues to turn health and safety requirements into straightforward, workable solutions.

We're looking for someone with a good understanding of health and safety principles who enjoys building relationships, influencing others and helping people find practical solutions.

You’ll bring:

• Working towards, or committed to achieving, Tech IOSH membership
• Experience applying health and safety principles within operational environments.
• Knowledge of health and safety legislation and best practice.
• An understanding of audits, inspections, risk management and incident investigation.
• Awareness of contractor management processes and associated documentation.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to engage colleagues at all levels.
• A pragmatic and customer-focused approach to health and safety.
• A commitment to continuing professional development and IOSH progression.
• Full UK driving licence

This is an excellent opportunity to develop your career within a large and ambitious organisation while helping to create safe environments for colleagues, customers and contractors.

You’ll be supported to continue building your expertise, broaden your experience across housing, property, construction and corporate settings, and contribute to meaningful improvements that have a lasting impact on our people and communities.

Flexible and hybrid working; many roles support working across our main locations and home.

Performance related pay based on shared success.

A choice of pension schemes with employer contributions of up to 10%.

Employee Assistance Programme that provides 24/7 virtual GP access, prescription service, and talking therapies for you and your family.

Annual allowance of £500 to spend on benefits of your choosing, including healthcare plans, dental care, gym membership and much more.

Generous holiday, occupational sick pay and paid family leave.

Fully funded professional membership, if a requirement of your role.

Continuous learning and development opportunities.
