Job Description

We’re Hiring: Health & Safety Advisor (SHE)

Location: Manchester

Full-time | Mon–Fri (Hybrid flexibility once established)


We’re currently seeking a hands-on Health & Safety Advisor to join a growing, fast-paced operational environment. This is an excellent opportunity for a proactive SHE professional who enjoys building, improving, and embedding safety systems within a regulated setting.


The Role

This is a non-managerial, delivery-focused position, ideal for someone who takes ownership and thrives in a practical, on-the-ground safety role. You’ll play a key part in developing, implementing, and maintaining robust Safety, Health & Environmental (SHE) systems while ensuring full compliance with UK legislation.


Key Responsibilities

• Provide expert SHE advice aligned with UK regulations and best practices

• Develop and maintain Risk Assessments, COSHH Assessments, and Safe Systems of Work (SSOW)

• Design and manage Permit to Work systems (Hot Works, Confined Space, Electrical, etc.)

• Implement and oversee Lock-Out / Tag-Out (LOTO) procedures

• Lead/support incident investigations and implement corrective actions

• Conduct inspections, audits, and ensure statutory compliance (Fire, LEV, Pressure Systems, etc.)

• Support contractor management including RAMS review and permit control

• Maintain SHE documentation in line with Good Documentation Practice (GDP)

• Deliver inductions, toolbox talks, and promote a strong safety culture


What We’re Looking For

✔ NEBOSH General Certificate (or equivalent)

✔ Proven experience in a Health & Safety Advisor or similar role

✔ Strong working knowledge of UK H&S legislation

✔ Experience with contractor safety, RAMS, and permit systems

✔ Ability to independently manage SHE activities in a dynamic environment

✔ Practical, solution-oriented, and hands-on mindset


Desirable

• Experience in manufacturing, engineering, pharma, or regulated environments

• GMP knowledge

• NEBOSH Diploma (or working towards) / IOSH membership

• Audit/inspection exposure (HSE, ISO, etc.)


We are specifically looking for a young, dynamic, and driven HSE professional—someone who is eager to step into a growing setup, ready to learn, unlearn, and build from the ground up. If you have the hunger to create, improve, and grow in the right way, this role is for you.
