Job Description

You'll keep the site legal and the workers safe for the road construction project in Epping. It suits someone who likes knowing exactly what a good day's work looks like.

You'll be based at a road construction project in Epping. Living nearby, or on a taxi route to it, really helps.

  • Write and review risk assessments and safe work method statements
  • Hold toolbox talks on topics that match the week's work
  • Compile and maintain the site health and safety file under the Construction Regulations 2014
  • Run site inductions for every new worker and visitor

What you need

  • SAMTRAC or an NQF-accredited health and safety qualification
  • Confident enough to stop unsafe work, even when the programme is tight
  • First Aid Level 1 at least
  • At least 2 years as a safety officer on construction sites

On offer

  • Travel and site allowances
  • Clear growth path to a construction health and safety agent role
  • Laptop and data for reporting
  • Paid SACPCMP renewal and CPD

How to apply
