Health and Safety Advisor - Streetworks and Light Civil Engineering
A strong opportunity for an up-and-coming Health and Safety professional to join a well-established business operating across streetworks and light civil engineering projects in Greater London and the South East.

The role
You will support the delivery of health and safety across a range of active sites, working closely with operational teams to maintain standards, manage risk, and promote a positive safety culture. This is a practical, visible role for someone who is confident being out on site, engaging with teams, and helping drive consistent standards across multiple locations.
You will be involved in inspections, audits, site support, and the ongoing review of site-specific health and safety arrangements. The role requires someone who can balance compliance with a practical understanding of how projects operate on the ground.
Location
The position involves a mix of home working and travel to sites across Greater London and the South East. A full UK driving licence is required. Travel is part of the role, but it is not excessive.
