Our work sits at the intersection of Health & Safety, HR, operational improvement and leadership development. We support organisations facing real operational pressures, helping leaders build systems that protect people, strengthen performance and stand up under scrutiny.

• Delivering toolbox talks and safety briefings where required
• Contributing to wider operational improvement work across client organisations

The role involves working closely with business owners, managers and operational teams to ensure safety systems operate effectively in practice.

We are looking for someone with a solid Health & Safety background who is keen to develop further within a consultancy environment.

The ideal candidate will have:

• TechIOSH membership or higher
• NEBOSH Certificate or higher
• An interest in progressing toward Chartered Membership (CMIOSH / MIOSH)
• Practical Health & Safety experience in operational environments such as construction, manufacturing, facilities management or logistics
• The ability to communicate clearly with managers and operational teams
• A practical approach to safety that works in real businesses
• Confidence working directly with clients and representing Progressa professionally
• The right to work in the United Kingdom
• Must live in the United Kingdom

• Working from home is possible for some aspects of the role

• The role will involve working in a range of operational environments

• Health & Safety leadership and risk management
• HR advisory and people management systems
• ISO management system implementation
• Leadership development and coaching

Our approach is practical and hands‑on. We focus on helping organisations build systems that protect people and support leadership under operational pressure.
