Health, Safety & Environment Advisor — 19-Week Contract Keighley | Full-time, On-site
An ambitious, fast-growing manufacturing business is looking for an experienced Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) Advisor to join its team in Keighley on a 19-week contract.
With significant investment, a strong leadership team and exciting growth plans underway, this is a fantastic opportunity to join a business where HSE is genuinely valued — and where you'll have the chance to make a tangible, lasting impact within a defined timeframe.
This is a hands-on, highly visible contract role where you'll work closely with operational teams across the site. The primary focus will be delivering a comprehensive programme of risk assessments across the business, alongside broader HSE advisory support to drive engagement and improve standards.
The Opportunity
Supporting the HSE Manager, you'll play a key role in coordinating and advising on all aspects of Health, Safety & Environment across a busy manufacturing operation.
During this 19-week engagement, you'll take ownership of the risk assessment programme — reviewing, updating and completing assessments across the site — while supporting compliance with ISO standards and promoting a proactive, positive safety culture throughout the business.
If you're someone who enjoys being visible on the shop floor, building relationships and delivering real outcomes within a clear timeframe, this contract offers the chance to do exactly that.

- Deliver HSE training, communication and awareness initiatives as required
- Work closely with operational teams to identify risks and implement practical solutions
- Manage HSE data, reporting systems and action tracking throughout the contract period
- Liaise with external bodies, suppliers and regulatory authorities where required
- Monitor legislation updates and support implementation of best practice

- Demonstrable experience leading or delivering risk assessment programmes
- Strong knowledge of UK HSE legislation and best practice
- Experience conducting audits, investigations and risk assessments
- Confident communicator with the ability to engage people at all levels
- Proactive, organised and able to hit the ground running in a contract setting
- NEBOSH qualification or equivalent preferred
- Available to commit to a 19-week on-site engagement in Keighley
