If these questions strike a chord, you may be interested in this Health and Safety Training Instructor position, working at the leading port operation on the River Thames. This site sits as a piece to a much larger organisation with a multitude of ports across the United Kingdom.

• Monitor and maintain compliance, ensuring that training meets internal standards, regulatory requirements and accreditation bodies (e.g. ITSAR)
• Coach, mentor and support operational, instructor and senior leadership teams so that safety best practice is understood and applied across the port estate.

The successful Health and Safety Training Instructor will have:

• A strong background in Health and Safety, ideally support by a NEBOSH General Certificate (or equivalent).
• Experience delivering training in both classroom, and practical, operational settings across a busy site. Supported by a Level 3 qualification in Education and Training is a bonus.
• Confidence to work with plant instructors, operational teams, and senior leaders, adapting and being flexible in style to suit the audience.
• Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel around a large site (and occasionally to other ports in the group).

What does the Health and Safety Training Instructor offer you?

• A competitive salary of 50,000 with annual review, and the opportunity to gain further accreditations and professional development.
• Discretionary group bonus scheme, 29 days annual leave, a defined pension scheme and life assurance.
• A key part within the state-of-the-art Logistics Skill Academy, health promotion events, wellbeing initiatives and access to the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) for you and your family.
