Description
As an HSEQ Advisor, you will support the safe and successful delivery of fencing and associated infrastructure works across the HS2 programme. Working closely with the Operations Manager, Project Managers, Site Managers, Supervisors, and installation teams, you will provide practical Health, Safety, Environmental, and Quality support across all operational activities.
This is a dual-role position with responsibility for both HSEQ compliance and quality assurance, ensuring works are delivered safely, efficiently, right first time and in accordance with client specifications and HS2 requirements.
You will be a visible presence on site, helping to educate, coach, and develop teams whilst promoting a positive safety and quality culture. We are looking for someone who can build strong working relationships with operational teams, maintaining high standards while taking a pragmatic and solutions-focused approach to construction activities.
Rather than simply identifying issues, you will work collaboratively with crews and management teams to find safe, workable solutions that support successful project delivery.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide professional Health, Safety, Environmental, and Quality advice across HS2 projects.
- Work closely with the Operations Manager, Project Managers, and site teams to improve safety, quality, and operational performance.
- Promote a positive safety culture through coaching, mentoring, and workforce engagement.
- Educate site teams on best practice, legislation, HS2 requirements, and company procedures.
- Build trust and credibility with installers, supervisors, and managers through a practical and collaborative approach.
- Support operational teams in identifying safe and efficient methods of working.
- Conduct regular site inspections, audits, quality checks, and behavioral safety observations.
- Review completed works to ensure compliance with client specifications, quality standards, and project requirements.
- Review Risk Assessments, Method Statements (RAMS), permits, and construction documentation.
- Support investigations into incidents, near misses, quality failures, and non-conformances.
- Ensure lessons learned are communicated and embedded across operational teams.
- Deliver toolbox talks, safety briefings, and quality awareness sessions.
- Monitor environmental performance and support environmental compliance objectives.
- Assist with the development and implementation of continuous improvement initiatives.
- Compile reports, audit findings, quality inspections, and performance metrics for management review.
- Support client audits, inspections, and assurance reviews.
