SHE Advisor – Construction West

West Midlands to North West | Regional Travel

Are you building your career in Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) and looking for an opportunity where you can gain experience across a variety of construction projects?

We have a fantastic opportunity for a SHE Advisor to join our Construction West team, supporting projects across the West Midlands through to the North West, with occasional travel outside the region.

This would be a great opportunity for someone in the earlier stages of their SHE career who has a good grounding in health and safety and is ready to broaden their experience. You'll work alongside experienced SHE and operational colleagues, visiting different projects and helping our teams create safe, well-managed working environments.

What you'll be doing

No two weeks will necessarily look the same. You'll spend much of your time out with our project teams, providing practical advice and helping them manage SHE effectively.

You'll be involved in:

• Visiting and supporting construction projects across the region
• Providing practical SHE advice and guidance to project teams
• Helping teams identify hazards, understand risks and put the right controls in place
• Reviewing risk assessments, method statements and project SHE plans
• Supporting regular project SHE reviews
• Coaching site teams and promoting positive SHE behaviours
• Supporting site-based SHE initiatives and interventions
• Helping with incident investigations and sharing lessons learned
• Monitoring actions and supporting teams to close these out
• Sharing good practice across projects and our supply chain
• Building strong relationships with project teams, operational colleagues and supply chain partners

What are we looking for?

We're looking for someone who is passionate about building a career in SHE and enjoys working with people.

You'll ideally bring:

• Some experience within a construction, engineering or similar environment
• A NEBOSH Certificate or NEBOSH Construction Certificate, or be working towards an appropriate qualification
• A good understanding of construction health and safety
• Confidence identifying hazards and assessing risk
• Strong communication and listening skills
• The ability to build relationships and positively influence others
• A practical, supportive approach to health and safety
• Good organisation and report-writing skills
• A genuine desire to learn, develop and progress

You may already be working towards professional membership with IOSH or IEMA, and we'll encourage you to continue developing your professional knowledge and experience.

A regional role with plenty of variety

This isn't a desk-based SHE role. You'll be out and about supporting projects across Construction West, from the West Midlands through to the North West, so you'll need to be comfortable travelling regularly.

In return, you'll get exposure to different projects, teams and construction environments, giving you an excellent opportunity to build your experience and develop into a well-rounded SHE professional.

If you're ready for the next step in your SHE career and want a role where you can learn, influence and make a difference on site, we'd love to hear from you.
