A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a Health & Safety Advisor to join our manufacturing client based in Stirling
This is not a desk-based compliance role. We’re looking for someone visible, hands-on, and confident on the shop floor — someone who can work alongside operators, engineers, and managers to genuinely strengthen safety culture and standards.
You’ll report directly to the Business Unit Manager and play a key role in driving continuous improvement across a busy manufacturing environment.
What You’ll Be Responsible For
- Developing, reviewing, and improving Safe Systems of Work (SSoW)
- Leading and maintaining comprehensive risk assessments (COSHH, Manual Handling, DSEAR)
- Embedding safety-critical procedures into operational SOPs
- Delivering inductions for new starters, contractors, and visitors
- Coordinating and delivering specialist training (LOTO, working at height, chemical safety)
- Conducting regular audits and site inspections
- Supporting practical solutions to H&S concerns
- Tracking and reporting KPIs (near misses, accident rates, training compliance)
- Supporting thorough root cause investigations
What We’re Looking For
- NEBOSH General Certificate (Level 3) or equivalent – essential
- 3–5 years’ H&S experience within manufacturing or heavy industry
- Comfortable working directly with teams on the shop floor
- Strong communicator who can influence at all levels
- Experience writing SSoW and detailed risk assessments
- Familiarity with digital safety management systems
- A proactive mindset and genuine drive to improve workplace safety
What’s On Offer
- Competitive salary: £35,000–£40,000 (depending on experience)
- 40-hour week, dayshift
- 31 days holiday (including statutory days)
- Pension: 3.5% employee contribution / 7% employer contribution
- The opportunity to make a real impact in a high-performing manufacturing environment
