HSE Advisor - Western Highlands - Heavy Industry/Oil and Gas
£350d Inside IR35
We are recruiting for an experienced HSE Advisor to support a major upgrade programme at a large-scale energy generation facility in western Scotland. This is an excellent opportunity to join a high-profile industrial project, working alongside multiple contractor and project teams to drive a strong safety culture and ensure the highest standards of HSE compliance.
The Role
As HSE Advisor, you will provide day-to-day health, safety and environmental support across a complex engineering and construction programme. Working closely with site management, project teams and contractors, you will help ensure activities are delivered safely, efficiently and in accordance with statutory and company requirements.
This role will involve navigating a complex stakeholder environment and quickly developing an understanding of the project scope, site operations and the various teams involved.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
