Job description

Senior HSEQ Advisor

Location: Hull, East Yorkshire

Salary: £55,000 - £60,000 + Bonus

Make a Real Difference to Safety, People and Performance

Are you an experienced Health and Safety professional who enjoys being hands-on, building relationships and turning best practice into meaningful improvements? This is an opportunity to take ownership, influence positive change and help shape a proactive safety culture across a diverse operational business.

Consortium Professional Recruitment are pleased to be partnering with an established international organisation to recruit an HSEQ Specialist. Operating across multiple locations, our client is looking for a confident, approachable professional who can strengthen safety standards, improve consistency and support operational teams in creating safer working environments.

The Opportunity:

As a Senior HSEQ Advisor, you'll play a key role in:

• Driving safety improvements: Working closely with operational managers and site teams to identify risks, promote safe working practices and embed a positive, proactive safety culture.
• Strengthening HSEQ systems: Developing and improving risk assessments, safe systems of work, policies and procedures, while supporting the implementation of ISO 45001 and existing ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 management systems.
• Supporting compliance and assurance: Conducting site inspections, contributing to internal and external audits, investigating incidents and near misses, and ensuring corrective actions deliver lasting improvements.
• Engaging and influencing teams: Building trusted relationships with colleagues across multiple sites, providing practical guidance, supporting training and helping managers translate legislation into everyday working practices.
• Championing continuous improvement: Reviewing performance information, identifying opportunities to standardise processes and working collaboratively with UK and international colleagues to improve HSEQ standards.

Your work will directly contribute to creating safer workplaces, improving operational consistency and strengthening a culture where everyone takes responsibility for health, safety and wellbeing.

The role will be predominantly based in Hull, approximately 75-80% of the time, with travel to other UK locations and occasional international visits. This is an individual contributor position offering significant autonomy, visibility and the opportunity to influence change across the business.

About You:

We're looking for someone who can bring:

• A recognised Health and Safety qualification, ideally a NEBOSH National General Certificate as a minimum.
• Practical experience in a Health and Safety role, ideally gained within logistics, warehousing, manufacturing, engineering, transport, construction or another operational environment.
• Strong working knowledge of UK Health and Safety legislation, risk assessments, incident investigations and safe systems of work.
• An understanding of ISO management systems, particularly ISO 4501, with exposure to ISO 9001 or ISO 14001 advantageous.
• The confidence to engage with operational teams, influence stakeholders and challenge existing practices constructively.
• A proactive, organised and solutions-focused approach, with the ability to manage priorities independently and follow improvements through to completion.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to explain technical requirements clearly and engage people at all levels.

Experience working across multiple sites, supporting audits or delivering practical safety training would be beneficial, although not essential.

Above all, we're looking for someone who is approachable, enthusiastic and genuinely passionate about making workplaces safer. You don't need to have worked internationally before, but you should enjoy working with people, building trust and making improvements that have a lasting impact.

The Benefits and Package:

In return, you'll enjoy:

• Salary: £55,000 - £60,000 per annum
• Performance-related bonus
• Life assurance: 4 x annual salary
• Private medical cover
• Additional leave
• Cycle to work scheme
• On-site parking
• Exposure to an international business and varied operational environments
• The opportunity to influence HSEQ strategy, systems and culture
• A collaborative working environment with the autonomy to make a meaningful difference

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious HSE professional who wants to move beyond maintaining compliance and play an active role in shaping how safety is understood, managed and improved across a business.
