Health, Safety & Compliance Trainee - Rail

Do you have Railway experience but don't want to work in all weathers anymore?

Would you like a role that is more office based but still with the opportunity to get out on site?

Do you have a passion for Health and Safety but haven't found a way in yet?

If the answer to these is yes, this could be just the role for you!

What competencies and qualifications do you need to start in this role?

You must be an experienced COSS (minimum) and hold SMSTS, ideally you will also have IOSH Managing Safely.

We are looking for someone with great railway knowledge to become our new Health, Safety & Compliance Advisor. We will train you to become one of the best in the industry! You will be coached by our Operations Director who has 22 years rail experience and 8 years H&S experience and our SHEQ Consultant - between them you'll struggle to find something they can't answer!

In the first couple of years with us, we will also be looking to put you through the following industry recognised qualifications:

• Tech IOSH
• Associate IEMA
• ISO 9001 Internal Auditor

So, now you know what the opportunity provides, here's a little about the role and us!

Based in Ashford, Kent this role attracts a starting salary of £25,300 per annum, 42.5 hours per week. As a general, you will be office based but weekends and nights are an expectation as well as some travel to our regional offices and regular site visits.

The team is anything but quiet, we enjoy a good laugh and a lot of coffee. We are Rail industry experts and we all have the enjoyment of a naughty lunch in common! So now you know a little about us, how about the actual role?

Your main duties will include:

• Maintaining our Management System, including all policies and procedures
• Carry out internal audits
• Responsible for internal audits including RISQS and ISO:9001
• Regular site visits
• Client interface
• Writing and updating RAMS
• Fatigue management for all site staff
• Managing our AFR
• Keeping up to date with current H&S legislation and implementing changes as required

These tasks won't all come at once though, you will be trained for each of them!

To be successful in your application you must have a keen interest in Health & Safety and be computer literate. We will train the industry information and coach you through all of your training.
