We are currently searching for a CDM Advisor to work on a contract basis on a nuclear project in Suffolk.
This will be site based in Leiston and will run through to the end of December but likely to be long term.

Reporting to the Conventional Health Safety and Wellbeing Manager, the purpose of the role is to support the CDM Lead in providing assurance to the Client Organisation that the Client's duties are being discharged as required by CDM 2015.
This will include using CDM and health and safety knowledge and experience to influence and coach stakeholders as required.
This is a senior professional role within the Safety and Security Assurance directorate, responsible for the delivery of assurance activities which are specific as to objective and content and may require co-ordination with related functions / programmes requiring the ability to motivate and influence.
Also required will be the ability to work independently with limited oversight from the Conventional Health Safety and Wellbeing Manager, but working closely with the CDM Lead

Key stakeholders are: UK Government, relevant Government departments and agencies including the Treasury, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, private financial investors and institutions, Regulators (Office for Nuclear Regulation and Environment Agency), Alliance partners and local communities.

Principal Accountabilities, Activities and Decisions
