The Role
Health & Safety is more than compliance at Kilnbridge – it's about creating a culture where people thrive, risks are managed proactively, and everyone goes home safe every day.
We're looking for an experienced and engaging Health & Safety Advisor to play a key role in supporting some of the UK's most complex and high-profile engineering, construction and infrastructure projects. This is a highly visible role where you'll work closely with project teams, operational leaders and stakeholders across the business, providing expert advice, driving best practice and helping to embed a strong and positive safety culture throughout our operations.
You'll be at the forefront of promoting health, safety and wellbeing, supporting our project teams to deliver outstanding performance while ensuring compliance with legislative, client and company requirements. From conducting audits and inspections to investigating incidents and delivering engaging safety initiatives, you'll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact on the safety and success of our projects.
Working closely with the HSEQ Director and operational management teams, you'll act as a trusted advisor, championing continuous improvement and helping drive the highest standards of health, safety and environmental performance across the business.
If you're passionate about influencing positive behaviours, building strong relationships and creating safer workplaces, we'd love to hear from you.
