Job Description

Are you an experienced Health & Safety professional with a strong background working on Network Rail infrastructure? 
  
Do you hold a NEBOSH certification? 
  
Location: Glasgow & Central Belt Scotland 
Salary: £50,000 - £60,000 + Company Vehicle/Allowance 
  
This is an exciting opportunity to work for a rail subcontractor recruiting for a Health & Safety Advisor, supporting a growing portfolio of Network Rail projects across Scotland. 
  
This is a genuinely hands-on role for someone who enjoys being out on site, engaging with operational teams, influencing behaviours and driving a positive safety culture. Around 90% of your time will be spent in the field carrying out site inspections, coaching teams and supporting operational delivery, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who prefers a practical environment rather than being office-based. 
  
The Role: 
  
Reporting into the HSQE team, you'll play a key role in ensuring safe delivery across a range of Network Rail works. You'll work closely with site teams, supervisors and clients to maintain high safety standards and continuously improve performance across the business. 
  
This role would suit an experienced Advisor looking to continue developing their career within operational health and safety. It is not a senior management or heavily office-based position, but rather a field-focused role where you'll have a visible impact on project delivery and workforce safety. 
  
Key responsibilities: 
  
·Conducting site inspections and audits across live Network Rail environments. 
·Providing coaching, mentoring and guidance to operational teams. 
·Delivering site inductions, briefings and toolbox talks. 
·Building strong relationships with clients and attending meetings as the company's H&S representative. 
·Supporting the investigation of incidents and accidents, identifying root causes and ensuring corrective actions are implemented. 
·Promoting best practice and driving continuous improvement in health, safety and environmental performance. 
·Identifying training requirements and supporting the development of site personnel. 
·Raising and maintaining the profile of health, safety and environmental compliance across the business. 
  
Essential Experience: 
  
·NEBOSH qualification 
·Previous experience working as a Health & Safety professional on Network Rail infrastructure projects (essential). 
·Strong understanding of Network Rail standards, procedures and safe systems of work. 
·Previous holder of a PTS card (current or lapsed). 
·Excellent communication skills and the confidence to engage with both operational teams and clients. 
  
Please note that flexibility is required for occasional night shifts, weekend possessions and working away from home when required by operational demands. 
  
If you're an experienced Health & Safety Advisor with Network Rail experience and you're looking for a role where you can make a real difference on site, I'd be keen to speak with you.
