Guided by the team leader, you will collaborate across multiple sectors, ensuring daily management of concerns, providing service users with accurate advice and support, and promoting a positive culture of Health, Safety, and Wellbeing throughout the organization.

  • Supporting the implementation of our lone working policy, ensuring staff and managers are well-informed of their responsibilities and adequately trained.
  • Providing after-hours support as needed, making decisions and escalating issues when necessary.
  • Collecting and analyzing Health, Safety, and Wellbeing statistics, accident reports, and relevant sickness data to identify trends and make informed recommendations.
  • Ensuring personal and organizational data is managed in accordance with established policies and procedures.
  • Contributing to the development of strategic initiatives for the Health, Safety, and Wellbeing team and the broader organization.
