Looking for a new challenge?

The Strategic Command Safety Centre is looking for an enthusiastic, motivated and experienced individual to join us and work as an integral part of the team to fill the role of Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA).

Strategic Command (UKStratCom) is one of the four Military Commands operating in the UK and overseas, including locations in Cyprus, Gibraltar and the South Atlantic.

The Strategic Command Safety Centre enables UKStratCom to deliver its core outputs whilst protecting Health, Safety and the Environment.

The DGSA is responsible for supporting the Head of the Safety Centre by providing Strategic Command Business Units, Heads of Establishment and other stakeholders with professional advice on the transport, movement and handling of Dangerous Goods, in order for them to meet the Health and Safety, Environmental Protection (HS&EP) objectives in the UKStratCom Command Plan and Executive Committee/ HS&EP Committee priorities as well as applicable legal requirements.

The DGSA will also act as Movements and Transport Subject Matter Expert (SME), providing competent advice and support across the command.

The Safety Centre is primarily based at MOD Abbey Wood North in Bristol. The duty station for this post will be MOD Abbey Wood North.

The post is advertised at 37 hours per week and is intended to be full-time and therefore part-time or job share can only be considered if full-time cover can be achieved.

**Job description**:

- Develop & maintain command-specific Dangerous Goods policies and guidance whilst adopting and promoting best practice.
- Establish and chair a UKStratCom Dangerous Goods Working Group (DGWG).
- Submit DGSA periodic (annual) reports to Head of the Safety Centre for inclusion in the UKStratCom Annual Assurance Report to Deputy Commander UKStratCom, providing a copy to the Defence regulator, MTSR.
- Co-ordinate the Dangerous Goods Manual (DGM) Request for Change (RfC) proposals on behalf of the command.
- Co-ordinate all competent authority approvals on behalf of the command for all classes of Dangerous Goods including Class 1 and 7, including internationally.
- Act as Movements and Transport SME across the command, providing competent advice and support to HLBs and Units.
- Establish, implement and maintain Second Party Assurance (2PA) programs for Dangerous Goods and Movement and Transport.
- Review Dangerous Goods and Movement and Transport first party assurance (1PA) undertaken by subordinate HLBs and units.
- Review regulator inspection reports, record enforcement notices and monitor the implementation of associated action plans.
- Ensure risks are owned and managed at the appropriate level(s) and liaise with all relevant stakeholders to ensure that suitable actions are taken to keep Dangerous Goods and Movement and Transport risks ALARP and Tolerable.
- Maintain close working relationship with the Command Master Driver (relating to the movement of DG by road) and Defence Safety Authority (DSA) regulators.
- Investigate Dangerous Goods and Movement and Transport related accidents, incidents and near misses, assisting with the production of reports and providing relevant details to the MoD Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor and the regulator.
- Act as the command focal point for all communications with DSA Regulators, other organisations and stakeholders that are integral to managing Dangerous Goods and Movement and Transport risks.
- Review and promote current DG Awareness training, Toolbox talks and other Movement and Transport information to support the command and external stakeholders as required.
- Contribute and support the Safety Centre wider objectives and HS&EP audit programme.
