Health & Safety Advisor - Infrastructure

Location: Hants / East Sussex

Salary: £40,000 - £45,000 + package

Type: Permanent

Sector: Water / Utilities / Civil Engineering

We're recruiting for a Health & Safety Advisor to support ongoing major infrastructure contracts 

This is a good opportunity for an experienced H&S professional who wants to work across long-term utilities and infrastructure projects, supporting operational teams and helping maintain strong safety standards across live sites.

The role

You'll work closely with project managers, site teams and contractors across both business areas, providing practical health and safety support across ongoing works.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Carrying out site inspections and audits
  • Providing day-to-day H&S advice to operational teams
  • Reviewing RAMS and safe systems of work
  • Supporting incident and near-miss investigations
  • Monitoring compliance with company standards and legislation
  • Supporting toolbox talks and safety briefings
  • Working with contractors and supply-chain partners
  • Identifying areas for improvement and ensuring actions are closed out
  • Supporting the development of a positive safety culture across the projects

What we're looking for

You'll ideally have previous experience as a Health & Safety Advisor within:

  • Civil engineering
  • Utilities
  • Water
  • Infrastructure
  • Groundworks
  • Construction

You should also have:

  • NEBOSH General or Construction Certificate, or equivalent
  • Good knowledge of UK health and safety legislation
  • Experience working directly with site and operational teams
  • Confidence challenging unsafe practices where required
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

Previous experience within the water sector would be beneficial, but it is not essential if you have a strong civil engineering or utilities background.

Package

  • £40,000 - £45,000 salary
  • Company car or car allowance
  • Permanent position
  • Long-term infrastructure work
