Colchester, Essex, United Kingdom myGwork Full time

This inclusive employer is a member of myGwork – the largest global platform for the LGBTQ+ business community.

Who are we?

Howden is a collective - a group of talented and passionate people all around the world. Together, we have pushed the boundaries of insurance. We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mind-set, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 15,000 employees spanning over 100 countries.

Our people are our biggest asset as well as our largest shareholder group and are everything that makes us unique; our inclusive culture, the quality service we offer our clients, and our continued growth, all come from our people-first approach. There's no such thing as individual success. We all need to play our part, contributing our skills and experience to make a true difference. That's Howden.

Why work at Howden?

We have always been employee-owned and driven by entrepreneurial spirit. Right from the beginning, we've focused on employing talented individuals and empowering them to make a real difference to the company, whilst building successful and fulfilling careers at the same time. Simply put, we hire talented specialists and give them what they need to make a difference for clients. Always have, always will.

People join Howden for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It's what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down disappointed head-hunters for years. Whatever your priorities - work/life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering - you'll find like-minded people driving change at Howden.

At Howden - Corporate & Commercial, commercial insurance isn't just what we do - it's who we are. We support our clients through the complex landscape of commercial risk. We understand the diverse needs of businesses from large corporates to emerging ventures, meticulously crafting bespoke solutions to empower businesses to navigate uncertainty and achieve unwavering growth. Our depth of commercial insurance expertise allows us to protect client's assets and fuel their progress. When our clients prosper, we celebrate success with them; when challenges arise, we provide unwavering support.


I am seeking a H&S Consultant to support our team in providing comprehensive safety initiatives for our diverse clients. This is a great opportunity for someone who is passionate about workplace safety and has a desire to empower businesses to prioritise employee wellbeing.
Please note this is a full-time, permanent opportunity. You will be based in our Colchester office and be travelling for 2-3 days per week.

Overview:
• Conduct thorough Health & Safety audits, identifying potential hazards and ensuring compliance with relevant regulations.
• Complete fire risk assessments to proactively mitigate fire risks and safeguard lives and property.
• Undertake comprehensive risk assessments, developing and implementing effective controls to minimize workplace hazards.
• Develop clear, concise, and actionable safety policies and procedures to foster a safe and healthy work environment.
• Act as a trusted advisor, providing expert H&S advice and support to a wide range of clients, empowering them to prioritise employee wellbeing.
• Prepare and deliver high-quality reports and training materials, including IOSH Managing Safely courses, to keep clients informed and ensure compliance.

Knowledge & Qualifications:
• NEBOSH Diploma or equivalent qualification, demonstrating a strong foundation in H&S principles.
• GradIOSH membership with a demonstrable commitment to continuous professional development by working towards CMIOSH.
• NEBOSH Fire Safety qualification (or equivalent), showcasing specialized knowledge in fire risk management.

Essential Skills:
• Proven experience within a health and safety consultancy environment.
• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills to effectively build strong relationships and convey complex H&S information.
• The ability to thrive in both a collaborative team environment and independently, demonstrating strong initiative and problem-solving skills.
• Meticulous attention to detail to ensure accuracy and compliance in all H&S activities.

Who we're looking for

At Howden we value diversity - there is no one Howden ‘personality type'. Instead, we're looking for individuals who share the same values as us:

  • Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new

  • We support each other, in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges

  • We are determined to make a positive difference, at work and beyond

What do we offer in return?

A career that you define.

Our business succeeds by allowing our people to make a mark in the areas they care about most: personal development, volunteering, and fundraising for charity, or creating new insurance products that address society's greatest challenges.

And we know that separate home and work lives don't really exist. If you're happy and healthy at home, you're more likely to be happy and fulfilled at work - and vice versa. That's why we do our best to support our people in every aspect of their lives.

Diversity and Inclusion

At Howden, we consider our people our chief competitive advantage and as such we treat colleagues, candidates, clients, and business partners with equality, fairness, and respect - regardless of age, disability, race, religion or belief, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, or family circumstances.

Our sustainability promise

We're on a life-long journey to become an ever-more sustainable group. It's a commitment to taking care of our people and the world we live in, to doing good business, and to making a positive impact wherever we can. Our governance processes, company policies, and review systems are all geared towards our goal of making a positive impact in the world. You can read more about our sustainability work here.
