About the Role

Southern Water is seeking a proactive Health and Safety Advisor to join our committed Capital Delivery team within our Health and Safety function.

In this essential role, you will ensure compliance with health and safety regulations, lead investigations, and provide expert advice across capital delivery projects, helping to shape a safety culture within Southern Water's infrastructure development and maintenance operations.

Key Responsibilities

  • Deliver and monitor performance against Safety, Health, and Wellbeing (HSW) strategy and objectives within the Capital Delivery area.
  • Provide expert health and safety advice to project teams, ensuring compliance with relevant legislation, industry best practices, and Southern Water's standards.
  • Lead site inspections, hazard management activities, and root cause investigations on capital delivery sites.
  • Offer practical coaching and mentoring to project managers and site supervisors to enhance their ability to monitor and ensure compliance.
  • Provide technical advice in high-risk areas, including chemical storage, temporary works, Construction Design and Management (CDM), site set up, excavations, service avoidance, and other hazardous substances present in capital delivery projects.
  • Lead incident investigations, reporting findings directly to the Head of HSW and HSSW Director and making recommendations for corrective actions.
  • Ensure compliance with Construction Design and Management (CDM) Regulations, providing technical guidance to both site and office-based staff.
  • Attend design and progress meetings and conduct site audits during ongoing construction projects.
  • Liaise with the Security and Wellbeing teams to ensure alignment between safety and security practices on capital projects.

What You'll Bring

  • Comprehensive knowledge of health and safety legislation and industry best practices, with proven experience applying these principles in a project or capital delivery context.
  • Experience in a health and safety advisory capacity, preferably within construction. Exposure to process safety is highly desirable.
  • You must have NEBOSH Diploma or equivalent qualification, and a minimum of CertIOSH/GradIOSH status (CMIOSH, or CFIOSH highly desirable).
  • Strong background in CDM 2015 Regulations and their application to major construction projects.
  • A full UK driving licence is required due to the multi-site nature of the role.
