Overview

At Gallagher, we help organisations create safer, stronger and more resilient businesses.

We're looking for a Health, Safety & Fire Risk Consultant to join our Risk Management Solutions (RMS) team. This is a consultancy role where you'll work directly with clients across a range of sectors, helping them identify risks, improve safety standards and implement practical solutions that make a real difference.

You’ll spend time visiting client sites, carrying out audits, inspections and fire risk assessments, reviewing systems and procedures, and providing advice that helps organisations manage risk effectively.

This is a largely home-based role with flexibility to manage your own diary. You'll be trusted to work independently while being supported by an experienced team of specialists across the UK.

• Supporting organisations to strengthen their risk management approach.
• Building trusted relationships with client stakeholders.
• Managing your own projects, workload and client appointments.

What you'll bring:

• A NEBOSH General Certificate, Construction Certificate or equivalent health & safety qualification.

• Experience carrying out audits, inspections, site reviews or advisory work.
• Strong client-facing skills and the confidence to build relationships.
• Experience producing clear reports and communicating recommendations.
• The ability to work independently and manage competing priorities.
• A practical, solution-focused approach to risk management.

It would be great if you also have:

• Fire risk assessment or fire safety consultancy experience.
• IOSH membership (TechIOSH, GradIOSH or above).
• ISO 45001 experience.
• Experience within consultancy, risk engineering or insurance environments.
• Exposure to fleet, motor or property risk management.
