Job Description
Your new role
From keeping people safe to delivering sustainable engineering excellence, our teams play a vital role in shaping the future of rail. With operations across the globe and a strong focus on innovation, digital transformation and responsible working, we offer a place where experienced professionals can genuinely make their mark.
If you’re an established HSE Advisor who enjoys being visible on site, influencing positive change and partnering with operational teams – this could be your next move. Reporting into the HSE Manager, you’ll be the go-to HSE presence for our Stoke Gifford depot, supporting the effective management and continuous improvement of Health, Safety and Environmental standards.
This is a hands-on, people-facing role where you’ll have real ownership, credibility on site and the opportunity to shape how HSE is embedded day to day – not just audited from afar.
