This is a field-based, customer-facing role. You will spend most of your time visiting customer sites, carrying out audits, inspections and consultancy work, and helping businesses deal with real health and safety challenges.
You will work with customers across a range of sectors, with a particular focus on construction and higher-risk environments. Alongside providing practical advice, you will build strong relationships, represent THSP within the local business community and help us continue to grow across the region.

- You will represent THSP at networking events, industry forums and local business events.
- You will work closely with colleagues to support customer retention and identify where customers may need further help.

About You
- You will need to be adaptable, communicate effectively and build strong working relationships with business owners, managers and employees.
- This role will suit someone who wants variety, responsibility and the opportunity to develop their career.
- It will not suit someone looking for a desk-based, fixed 9-to-5 role.
- Put the effort in and THSP will match it with hands-on coaching, strong support and opportunities to build experience that can be difficult to find elsewhere.
