Summary
Health & Safety Advisor
Location: Hertfordshire – Commercial Fit-Out Projects
Salary: £70,000–£75,000 + Package
Why This Role?
This is an excellent opportunity to join a long-established and highly respected MEP contractor during an exciting period of growth and expansion. With a strong reputation built over decades, the business is continuing to secure larger commercial fit-out projects and is now looking for an experienced Health & Safety professional to play a key role in driving their H&S function forward.
This position offers far more than a traditional site-based safety role. You will be instrumental in developing company-wide Health & Safety procedures, improving compliance standards, and supporting the long-term growth of the department as projects continue to increase in scale and complexity.
Working closely with senior leadership and operational teams, this role provides genuine long-term progression potential into Head of Department or Director-level responsibilities as the business continues to grow.
What You’ll Do
- Lead and manage Health & Safety across multiple MEP and commercial fit-out projects
- Develop and implement company-wide H&S procedures, policies, and best practices
- Ensure compliance with all relevant health, safety, and environmental legislation
- Carry out site inspections, audits, risk assessments, and incident investigations
- Work closely with operational teams to improve safety culture and site standards
- Support the business in achieving and maintaining required accreditations and compliance frameworks
- Provide guidance and support to project managers, engineers, and subcontractors on all H&S matters
- Drive continuous improvement across reporting, procedures, and overall safety performance
- Assist in developing and expanding the internal Health & Safety structure as the company grows
- Produce detailed H&S reports, recommendations, and compliance documentation for senior management
- Support pre-construction and tender processes from a Health & Safety perspective
- Act as a key stakeholder in the company’s wider operational and strategic development
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience in a Health & Safety Advisor, Manager, or similar role within M&E, MEP, or construction
- Strong understanding of commercial fit-out and construction site safety requirements
- Experience implementing and improving H&S systems, procedures, and compliance standards
- Confident communicator with the ability to influence both site teams and senior stakeholders
- Ability to work independently and take ownership of the Health & Safety function
- Strong knowledge of current UK Health & Safety legislation and best practices
- NEBOSH qualification or equivalent
- Organised, proactive, and commercially aware approach to Health & Safety management
Desirable Experience
- Previous experience working within growing MEP contractors or specialist subcontractors
- Experience supporting business accreditations and compliance frameworks
- Exposure to projects ranging from £1m–£15m in value
- Experience helping build or expand internal H&S departments
- Background in commercial fit-out environments
What This Role Offers
- Senior leadership opportunity within a growing and ambitious MEP contractor
- Genuine long-term progression into Head of Division or Director-level responsibilities
- Opportunity to shape and develop the company’s future Health & Safety strategy
- Exposure to larger-scale commercial projects and expanding client relationships
- Key position within a business entering an exciting phase of growth
- Long-term career stability with a highly established contractor
- Senior leadership opportunity within a growing and ambitious MEP contractor
- Previous experience working within growing MEP contractors or specialist subcontractors
- Proven experience in a Health & Safety Advisor, Manager, or similar role within M&E, MEP, or construction
