This new full-time post is immediately available on a permanent basis.
This role offers the opportunity for hybrid working – some time on campus and some from home.
The role
Here at the University of Exeter, the Health and Safety Team supports students and staff to carry out high level research in the safest and most productive way possible. Students and staff are at the heart of the safety work we do, and our aim is to continually improve safety provision for everyone.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an outstanding Health & Safety Advisor to provide competent and operationally practicable advice support to staff and managers. The post holder will have a significant role in leading auditing with a strong focus on supporting Faculties and Professional Service to measure their performance in safety.
The University has a devolved risk management structure, and this post will ensure that Faculties and Professional Services have the support, training and management systems available to them to enable them to be successful in these areas.
The post holder will engage with staff at all levels, empower decision making and connect with managers to enable this and specifically their objective will be to nurture effective relationships with the leaders in their designated Faculty including the Department Managers, Directors of Faculty and Heads of Departments.
The team are committed to providing a modern, fresh approach to health and safety management and the post holder will agree with us that “red tape burden” is not the way forward in successful safety management.
