Irwin and Colton are delighted to have been engaged by The Scouts Association to recruit several new Senior Safety Officers for their Health and Safety team. The organisation has over 500,000 members nationwide, spread across 8,000 hubs; Each of these hubs provides the opportunity for young people, from aged 4 upwards to undertake outward bound activities on a regular basis, so therefore incur challenging risks.

Their pension, health and leave arrangements are generous and they will provide an excellent induction and training into this unique organisation which really changes young people's lives.
Responsibilities of the Senior Safety Officer will include:


Manage a small team of Safety Officers, providing clear objectives, advice and expertise
Ensure sites and scouting activities are fully compliant with both UK legislation and the Scouts' detailed safety rules and guidance
Provide members with specialist technical advice and support in the area of safety, outdoor activities and adventure
Conduct health and safety audits in line with the Scouts' Safety Quality Framework, identify areas of non-compliance and take appropriate action to rectify these
Work with local volunteer line managers to ensure the delivery of safe scouting to members, through compliance, quality assurance, and data insights

The successful Senior Safety Officer will have:
NEBOSH Certificate (or equivalent)
