About the Role:

As a Health and Safety (H&S) Technician at a photovoltaic (PV) plant in the UK, you will play a critical role in ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations throughout all construction, operation, and maintenance activities.

  • Implementation of Safety Protocols: Ensure compliance with safety protocols and procedures, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to safety signage. Work closely with site managers to update and refine safety policies as operational needs evolve.
  • Inspections and Audits: Perform daily, weekly, and monthly safety inspections of the site, equipment, and working areas. Ensure that all electrical systems, inverters, and solar panels comply with safety standards and are properly maintained to prevent accidents.
  • Incident Investigation and Reporting: Investigate any accidents, incidents, or near misses that occur on-site. Prepare detailed reports with recommendations for improvements, ensuring root cause analysis is completed to prevent reoccurrence.
  • Training and Safety Briefings: Conduct regular safety training sessions and briefings for staff, contractors, and visitors. Keep all personnel informed about new safety procedures, particularly around the handling of photovoltaic panels and electrical components.
  • Coordination with Regulatory Bodies: Ensure compliance with UK health and safety regulations, including Construction (Design and Management) Regulations and environmental laws. Liaise with external auditors and inspectors to maintain regulatory standards.
Requirements:
  • Experience in H&S: Prior experience in health and safety roles within the construction, renewable energy, or industrial sectors.
  • Knowledge of Regulations: Familiarity with UK health and safety regulations.
  • Attention to Detail: Ability to identify potential risks and implement effective safety controls.
  • Communication Skills: Capacity to communicate safety guidelines and protocols effectively to both technical and non-technical staff.
  • Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to handle incidents swiftly, conduct thorough investigations, and implement corrective actions.
  • Renewable Energy Experience: Experience with renewable energy projects, particularly solar energy, is a strong advantage.
Benefits:
  • 22 working days of vacation per year + 8 bank holidays.
  • 15 working days of sick leave (100% salary).
  • 2 weeks of paternity leave (80% salary).
  • Travel at the beginning and end of the project if necessary.
