Compliance Officer ofertas em Grã-Bretanha

We are seeking an experienced Construction Safety Advisor to support our construction teams by ensuring compliance with CDM regulations, maintaining high standards of on‑site safety, and contributing to Human & Organisational Performance (HOP) initiatives. You will be a key partner to project and design teams, bridging the gap between regulatory frameworks and practical site execution.

• Lead compliance with CDM2015: support design teams, coordinate pre‑construction info, check contractor competence, and handle notifications.
• Conduct design‑phase reviews and regular site inspections to identify hazards and apply effective controls.
• Develop and enforce site‑specific HSE policies, permit‑to‑work systems, and toolbox talk frameworks.
• Facilitate HOP‑informed workshops (e.g., “work‑as‑done” reviews, learning teams, after‑action reviews) to shift safety culture from blame to system‑focused learning.
• Partner with project teams to integrate safety into planning, ensuring systems anticipate human error and support frontline adaptability.
• Plan and deliver safety briefings, inductions, and multi‑disciplinary forums, inspired by HOP principles.
• Investigate incidents and near‑misses with root‑cause analysis grounded in HOP philosophies—viewing individuals as problem‑solvers, not problems.
• Maintain rigorous safety records—audit reports, risk assessments, inspection logs—aligned with CDM and UK safety standards.
