As part of our Emergency Planning team, you’ll help ensure that our operations are not only compliant but set the standard in safety across one of the most complex construction environments in the country.

• Coordinate emergency drills and exercises, and ensure lessons learned are captured, shared and acted upon
• Liaise effectively with clients, contractors, emergency services, and regulatory bodies to ensure best-in-class emergency preparedness
• Provide expert advice and practical guidance during audits, inspections, and stakeholder meetings
• Monitor compliance, report on key performance metrics, and contribute to continuous improvement in emergency response capabilities
• Write comprehensive Rescue Plans and coordinate exercises to ensure clear understanding across all stakeholder groups

What we’re looking for:

• Strong understanding of UK emergency planning legislation and guidance
• Proven experience in developing and implementing emergency rescue plans within high-risk or complex environments
• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written, with the ability to engage and influence across all operational levels
• Demonstrable track record of promoting a positive safety culture and providing constructive feedback
• Knowledge of UK Health and Safety Legislation, supported by NEBOSH General or Construction Certificate
