Hse Advisor

WorkFlow Services Ltd is an expanding, forward-thinking organisation which provides project, cost and commercial services to the construction, engineering and utilities sector.

Offering a range of services including pre and post contract management for all aspects of public and private sector construction and engineering projects, we work with a variety of clients from subcontractors, main contractors and employers / clients across all sectors from civil engineering, property development, new build developments with a big focus on gas and electrical utilities.

We are currently looking to recruit a HSE Advisor. You will support a number of projects to meet the requirements of the Safety and Environment Management systems. You will support site teams and managers by recognising hazards and seeking to minimise risks whilst creating, maintaining, and improving health, safety and environmental standards. You will champion HSE initiatives in the workplace whilst ensuring that legislation is adhered to. You will review and produce safe systems of work documentation including construction phase plans, risk assessment, method statements and other safety critical documentation.

While our Head Office is based in Cheshire, you will be based at home and will need to attend client sites in the Midlands, so a willingness to travel is essential, as is a full, clean UK driving licence.

If you meet 80% or more of what we’re looking for, please still apply. We understand not everyone will meet all the requirements, but you might have skills we didn’t know we need.
