You'll be responsible for supporting operational teams across multiple sites, carrying out audits and inspections, promoting safe working practices, and ensuring compliance with company procedures and industry regulations.

What We're Looking For

• NEBOSH General Certificate (or working toward)
• Full UK Driving Licence.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Good understanding of construction site activities.
• Confidence engaging with operatives, supervisors and management teams.
