We have an exciting opportunity for a dedicated and enthusiastic professional to join our Trust Health and Safety Team as a Health and Safety Advisor.
The post holder will work with the Head of Trust Health and Safety and Health and Safety Manager to support and advise the Trust on health and safety matters across a wide range of settings, including clinical and non-clinical areas and to be a point of contact and competent advisor to staff and managers in this regard.
