* Tech IOSH membership (or working towards). Essential
* SMSTS qualification.
* First Aid at Work certificate.
* A full UK driving licence.
* Previous construction or engineering leadership experience — military background highly valued.
If you’ve recently transitioned from the Forces and have a strong safety/leadership record, they are keen to hear from you, they can support you with civilian sector experience.)
What’s in It for You, as well as an excellent starting salary of between £55 – 65k depending on experience and commercial knowledge:
* Structured career development with training and CPD support.
* Exposure to high-profile, complex interior fit-out projects.
* Supportive, team-focused working environment.
* Private medical cover (including GP scheme), insurance, and pension.
* Travel expenses & mileage reimbursement.
* Employee assistance programme and wellbeing perks.
* Discounts on gyms, shopping, and more.
* And finally, 25 days holiday + Bank Holidays as well as a Christmas Shut down which is on top of your leave entitlement.
Why are they seeking veterans:
* Leadership: You’ll be trusted to influence teams and make safety-first decisions.
* Risk Management: Translating your operational risk experience into construction safety.
* Communication: Your ability to brief, instruct, and guide teams is invaluable.
* Adaptability: Every site is different — just like every posting.
This would be an ideal role from someone who has either construction knowledge in the military i.e. Royal Engineer SNCO or who has gained such experience since leaving the forces, as the last individual in this role was an ex RE SNCO who achieved a long career in this company before retiring.
