Job description

About us

Wifinity was founded in 2007 to solve a problem—our armed forces were struggling with reliable connectivity. While living in barracks, often in remote locations, ordering a landline and booking an engineer just wasn’t an option.

And that problem isn’t exclusive to the military, either. Students living in University accommodation, families visiting holiday resorts, or living in shared accommodation and retirement communities.

Conventional home broadband doesn’t always work for them.

Wifinity is different. We offer the same benefits as traditional broadband, such as super-fast speeds, WiFi, and secure and private networks, but none of the downsides. We even offer Pay As You Go and flexible contracts, so customers only pay for what they need without hefty penalties or long contract terms.

We take the complexity out of connectivity.

The opportunity

Promote and support a positive Health and Safety culture by delivering SHEQ programmes and frameworks across our projects. Act as a subject matter expert, auditing and advising stakeholders to ensure compliance and continual improvement.

Key areas of focus

Joining our Health and Safety team you will be responsible for liaising with and auditing our team members and subcontractors across various sectors.

Your day-to-day role will consist of the following responsibilities; you may be required to carry out further responsibilities at the company's discretion.

• Plan and undertake audits and inspections to ensure compliance with legal and client requirements.
• Identify trends and provide advice for improvement.
• Develop and deliver Toolbox Talks based on audit findings.
• Maintain audit records and ensure timely corrective actions.
• Assist in investigations related to health, safety, and environmental issues.
• Act as a SHEQ subject matter expert with strong knowledge of legislation and best.
• Develop and review RAMS for operations.
• Support management system development and accreditations.

• AdriversLicense

Your experience:

It would be nice to also have, but not essential:
