Health and Safety Advisor (Maternity Cover)

Peterborough is a dynamic and vibrant City, and the City Council has a comprehensive improvement plan that sets out how it supports communities and businesses across the city. Keeping the Council’s staff safe is critical to this work.

You will ideally be a member of IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) and preferably obtained GradIOSH or CMIOSH.

The post holder will need to produce concise and accurate reports and provide appropriate and relevant advice to management and staff. Training will be provided on any council work management and reporting systems.

Interview Date: w/c 10th October - TBC
