About Allison Homes

At Allison Homes, our vision is to be known as the homebuilder you can trust. We create great homes and communities where people can thrive, building long-term relationships through integrity, quality and care.

Our culture is shaped by five values: Kindness, Trust, Teamwork, Passion and Performance. We want colleagues to feel welcomed, supported and able to make a meaningful contribution to our business and the communities we serve.

The Role

Reporting to the Group Health & Safety Manager, you will help maintain and improve health, safety and environmental performance across our East Midlands, Central and Eastern regions.

• Producing monthly reports covering audits, actions, accidents, incidents, near misses and emerging trends
• Supporting environmental compliance, including waste management, pollution prevention, spill control and site protection measures
• Working collaboratively across the business to improve standards while supporting construction and operational objectives

What We're Looking For

You will bring a practical and collaborative approach to health and safety. You will be comfortable working independently, managing different priorities and building effective relationships with people at all levels.

You will need:

• Strong working knowledge of current UK health and safety legislation and industry good practice
• Experience carrying out site inspections, audits and incident investigations

• An understanding of environmental compliance, including waste management and pollution prevention
• Competence in Microsoft Office and related business systems
• A full UK driving licence and flexibility to travel regularly across the regions
• A proactive, approachable and solutions-focused working style

Experience within housebuilding or residential construction would be beneficial, although we also welcome applications from candidates with relevant health and safety experience gained in other sectors.

We recognise that candidates may not meet every desirable criterion. If you have the essential qualification and relevant experience, together with the ability to build strong working relationships, we would be pleased to hear from you.
