North East England | Willingness to travel
Make a real impact. Build a safer, greener future.
Are you a Health & Safety Advisor who wants more than a standard compliance role?
Do you want to be part of projects that genuinely shape the UK’s renewable energy future?

This is an opportunity to play a visible, influential role on major infrastructure projects where safety, sustainability, and quality truly matter.
Why Join This Team?
