I am recruiting for an Interim HSE Compliance Officer to support a large public-sector organisation across a diverse estate portfolio throughout the Liverpool City Region.
This is a varied, hands-on position combining estate health & safety compliance, contractor management and construction/CDM activity across multiple operational sites.
You will work closely with estates, property, engineering and operational teams to ensure health & safety standards are maintained, statutory compliance requirements are met and contractors are operating safely across the portfolio.

Key Responsibilities

• Support the management of health & safety compliance across a multi-site estate.
• Monitor key areas of statutory and estate compliance, including asbestos, fire safety, Legionella and confined spaces.
• Undertake site inspections, plant inspections and general health & safety audits.
• Identify non-conformances and ensure appropriate remedial and improvement actions are progressed.
• Support accident, incident and near-miss investigations and recommend appropriate corrective actions.
• Monitor contractor health & safety performance and undertake contractor/site inspections.
• Review contractor documentation including RAMS, Safe Systems of Work (SSOW) and other relevant H&S information.
• Support construction, maintenance and refurbishment projects across the estate.
• Assist with duties and compliance requirements under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015.
• Support the preparation, review and management of pre-construction information.
• Work with internal stakeholders, contractors and project teams to ensure health & safety requirements are properly considered throughout project delivery.
• Provide practical health & safety advice to colleagues across estates, property and operational functions.
• Maintain appropriate compliance records and contribute towards ongoing H&S improvement activity.

About You

I am particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have experience within environments such as:

• Public-sector estates
• Asset or property management
• Facilities management
• Engineering and maintenance
• Construction
• Local government or other large multi-site organisations

You should have a good practical understanding of health & safety legislation and be comfortable working across operational sites rather than operating purely from an office-based compliance role.
Experience of CDM 2015, contractor management, construction activity and estate compliance would be particularly relevant. You should also be comfortable engaging with a broad range of stakeholders, from operational teams and contractors through to project managers and senior stakeholders.

The Opportunity

This would suit an experienced H&S professional who enjoys a genuinely varied role and is comfortable moving between estate compliance, site-based safety, contractor management and construction/CDM projects.
The initial assignment is expected to run for 6 months, with the potential for the position to develop into a permanent opportunity.
Rate: 350 per day Umbrella, Inside IR35.
