About the Role
We're looking for a proactive Health and Safety Advisor to support our Wastewater operations within the Health and Safety function. In this critical role, you'll ensure compliance with health and safety regulations, lead investigations, and provide expert guidance that strengthens our safety culture across our Wastewater teams.
As part of our Health, Safety, and Wellbeing (HSW) team, you'll monitor performance, conduct site inspections, and deliver practical advice to maintain the highest safety standards. From advising on high-risk areas-such as biogas, confined spaces, chemicals, excavations, and service avoidance-to leading incident investigations, your expertise will drive continuous improvement in compliance and behaviour.
Key Responsibilities
Deliver and monitor performance against our strategy and objectives within Wastewater operations.
Provide expert health and safety advice to operational and maintenance teams, ensuring compliance with legislation, best practice, and our standards.
Lead site inspections, hazard management activities, and root cause investigations.
Coach and mentor managers and operational teams to strengthen compliance and safety awareness.
Offer technical guidance on high-risk areas, including biogas, confined spaces, chemical storage, temporary works, excavations, and hazardous substances.
Lead incident investigations, report findings to senior leadership, and recommend corrective actions.
Ensure compliance with CDM Regulations and attend HAZOPs, progress meetings, and site audits for directly managed projects.
Collaborate with Security and Wellbeing teams to align safety and security practices across operational sites.
About You
You'll bring:
In-depth knowledge of health and safety legislation and best practice, with proven experience applying these principles in operational environments.
Previous experience in a health and safety advisory role, ideally within utilities; exposure to process safety is highly desirable.
NEBOSH Diploma (Level 6) or equivalent, with at least CertIOSH status (CMIOSH preferred).
A full UK driving licence (multi-site travel required).
We're looking for someone with exceptional communication skills-capable of interviewing, report writing, and clearly conveying safety information to diverse stakeholders. You'll have the ability to coach and empower teams, foster a strong safety culture, and confidently influence decisions under pressure.
Strong leadership and negotiation skills are essential, as you'll be driving behavioural change and ensuring compliance across multiple sitesBefore You Apply
