Health and Safety Advisor

Durham | £45,000 - £55,000 + Company Car + Excellent Benefits

Are you a practical Health & Safety professional who enjoys building relationships, solving problems and making a genuine impact on site?

Due to the planned retirement of a long-serving team member after 23 years with the business, an exciting opportunity has arisen for a Health, Safety & Environmental Advisor to join a well-established and highly respected construction safety consultancy based in the North East.

This is a rare opportunity to inherit an established client portfolio, work alongside experienced professionals, and develop your career within a business that genuinely invests in its people.

About the Company

For over two decades, this specialist consultancy has been supporting construction and civil engineering businesses with expert health, safety and environmental advice, alongside delivering industry-leading training programmes.

Operating primarily across the North East, with occasional travel into Yorkshire and Scotland, the business has built a reputation for providing practical, commercially focused advice that helps clients improve standards whilst supporting operational success.

With a close-knit team of experienced professionals, the culture is collaborative, supportive and family-oriented, offering an excellent work-life balance rarely found within the sector.

What you need:

Hold a NEBOSH General Certificate (essential)

Have construction or civil engineering experience
Enjoy being out on site rather than office-based
Can work independently and manage their own workload
Have experience conducting inspections and investigations
Are confident delivering training and presentations
Possess a practical, solutions-focused approach
Are personable, honest and team-oriented
What's on Offer?

£45,000 - £55,000 salary
Company car (electric or hybrid options available)
Employer pension contribution matched up to 7%
23 days annual leave plus bank holidays
Additional birthday leave
Annual Christmas bonus (£500 - £1,000)
Ongoing professional development and funded training
Support towards NEBOSH Diploma, PTTLS and environmental qualifications
Family-friendly culture with excellent work-life balance
Key responsibilities will include:

Conducting site inspections and audits
Producing reports and recommendations
Supporting accident and incident investigations
Delivering toolbox talks and training sessions
Advising clients on legislative compliance and best practice
Building strong relationships with stakeholders at all levels
Supporting environmental and sustainability initiatives where required
This role is predominantly site-based, allowing you to work autonomously whilst being fully supported by an experienced team.

Travel is predominantly across the North East, with occasional visits to Yorkshire and Scotland, typically involving no more than one overnight stay every two weeks.

If you're looking for a role where your expertise is valued, your development is supported and you can genuinely enjoy coming to work, we'd love to hear from you
