Our client is a market leader in multidisciplinary consultancy looking to appoint a Senior Health & Safety professional to the Midlands team who has large infrastructure project experience. The role is focussed around CDM and the Principal Designer role, so experience within a consultancy or design environment is essential as is a track record of working on major infrastructure projects either in the UK or abroad. The Senior Health & Safety Consultant will provide CDM advice in a client advisory capacity and will need to have a NEBOSH Construction alongside a professional qualification in construction or civils. Aside from the CDM piece, there is also an opportunity to take on some Health & Safety Training working with various clients in the region. Role is ideally based out of Birmingham, but if you're in the East Midlands, or East Anglia the client can accommodate as they have projects spread across those regions. This is a major corporate business, but the Health & Safety team operates almost as it's own business, so retains a smaller company feel. For more information on benefits and the team call Dominic on (phone number removed)
