Health and Safety Business Partner - £60,000 - £65,000 + Package - Residential Construction - East Anglia – ID: 11744
Want to move away from spending your days carrying out inspections and into a role where you'll genuinely influence how Health and Safety is delivered?
We're working with a growing residential construction business that's looking to appoint a Health and Safety Business Partner to support its East Anglia & Northern Home Counties region.
This isn't a traditional Health and Safety Advisor role.
Site inspections are carried out by an external specialist provider. Your focus will be on understanding the findings, working alongside operational teams and senior leaders, and coaching them to improve performance before issues arise. You'll be a trusted business partner, helping embed accountability and create a proactive Health and Safety culture across the region.
You'll work across regional offices and live projects, partnering with everyone from Site Managers through to senior leadership.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Success in this role isn't measured by the number of inspections you complete. It's measured by your ability to influence people, challenge thinking, coach managers and improve performance.
What's in it for you:
- £60,000 - £65,000 salary
- £6,000 Car Allowance
- Discretionary Bonus
- 10% Pension Scheme
- Private Medical Insurance
- Life Assurance
- 26 days Annual Leave + Bank Holidays
- Hybrid working with flexibility to manage your own diary
What you will be doing:
- Coach and influence managers at all levels to improve Health and Safety performance
- Drive proactive conversations from the earliest stages of developments
- Support Construction Phase Plans and provide practical CDM guidance
- Review inspection findings with the external Health and Safety provider and identify root causes rather than symptoms
- Lead meaningful conversations that encourage ownership and accountability
- Support accident investigations and share lessons learned across the business
- Build strong relationships with operational, technical and leadership teams
- Act as the link between the regional business and the external Health and Safety inspection provider.

What they’re looking for:
You'll be someone who naturally builds credibility with people on site and in the boardroom.
You'll know how to ask the right questions, challenge positively and coach people to make better decisions rather than simply telling them what they've done wrong.
You'll ideally have:
- NEBOSH Diploma or be working towards it
- CMIOSH or be working towards Chartered status
- Residential Construction experience would be ideal, although wider construction backgrounds will also be considered.
- Strong coaching, communication and stakeholder management skills
- A proactive mindset with a genuine passion for improving culture, not just compliance.
If you're looking for a role where your ability to influence people is valued just as much as your technical knowledge, we'd love to hear from you.
