Health & Safety Advisor
Glasgow area | Permanent | Excellent package
Our client is an ambitious, fast-paced manufacturer behind some of Scotland’s best-known brands. They’re looking for an experienced Health & Safety Advisor to take ownership of safety across one of their largest sites in the Glasgow area.
It’s a busy site with a lot of people, so you’ll need strong communication and influencing skills. You’ll be working with teams at every level and training them in new ways of working. There’s a real focus on machine and line safety, so experience of production line safety in a manufacturing environment would be a big plus.
You’ll join a well-established team, so there’s plenty of support and the chance to learn from experienced colleagues. The site runs a wide range of processes, which makes it a great place to broaden your experience, and there’s genuine career progression for the right person.
What you’ll be doing
Supporting the H&S strategy through data analysis and keeping on top of upcoming legislation
Advising the business on legislative changes
Reporting on key safety metrics, spotting trends and building action plans with continuous improvement at the core
Controlling site works from an H&S perspective- permit to work, contractor control, risk assessments, incident investigation, management of change and emergency response
Supporting occupational health surveillance based on a defined risk matrix
Delivering regulatory and awareness H&S training in line with the Competency Framework
Driving continuous improvement across the H&S Framework and Integrated Management System
Coordinating external regulators, auditors and third-party consultants, making sure actions are closed out on time
Working closely with colleagues and getting involved in team meetings and problem-solving activities
What we’re looking for
Solid H&S experience gained in a manufacturing environment
Hands-on knowledge of machine guarding and production line safety
Confidence to influence and train people across a large, busy site
A data-led, continuous improvement mindset
