Health and Safety Advisor - £60,000-£65,000 + Package - Residential Construction

Looking for a Health and Safety role where you can genuinely influence culture rather than just carry out audits?

We're working with a growing Residential Construction that has recently restructured its SHE function and is investing heavily in building a proactive safety culture. This is a newly created position supporting projects across the East Anglia region, giving you the opportunity to work closely with operational teams and senior leadership while helping shape standards across a growing business.

With a strong pipeline of projects, ambitious growth plans and an experienced leadership team in place, this is an excellent opportunity to join a business at an exciting stage of its journey.

This is a visible, hands-on position where you'll spend your time on site, coaching teams, influencing behaviours and driving continuous improvement rather than simply policing compliance.

What's in it for you:

  • Salary of £60,000 - £65,000
  • Bonus scheme
  • Enhanced pension
  • 26 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Holiday buy scheme
  • Life assurance
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Hybrid working with flexibility around site visits and regional offices
  • The opportunity to join a growing business with clear long-term investment and ambitious expansion plans.

What you will be doing:

  • Build positive relationships with site management and operational teams
  • Carry out site inspections, audits and performance reviews
  • Coach and influence teams to improve SHE culture
  • Support investigations into incidents and ensure lessons learned are implemented
  • Assist with CDM meetings, pre-construction planning and risk management
  • Monitor compliance with company standards and UK legislation
  • Contribute to regional improvement plans and health and safety objectives
  • Promote a proactive, collaborative approach to health and safety across the business

What they are looking for:

  • NEBOSH General / Construction Certificate (minimum)
  • NEBOSH Diploma (Desirable)
  • Residential Construction experience would be ideal, although wider construction backgrounds will also be considered
  • Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills
  • Someone who enjoys being on site, building relationships and influencing positive behaviours
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working autonomously across multiple projects

If you're looking for a role where you'll be trusted to make an impact, influence senior stakeholders and help shape the future of health and safety within a growing house builder, we'd like to hear from you.
