The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is a small government department with a big mission: to keep food safe, ensure that it is what it says it is, and that it is increasingly healthy and more sustainable.

We are looking for a Senior Health, Safety and Wellbeing Adviser who can support our efforts to provide a safe workplace for our varied teams across the Agency. You’ll deliver competent safety advice to FSA managers and employees, maintain our safety management system and drive initiatives to achieve our HSW strategy and targets.

If successful, you will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the health and safety culture in the FSA, leading the research, design and delivery of corporate policies, supporting risk management and carrying out audit activities that ensure we’re meeting UK legislation.

You will design and deliver training, review and update our health, safety and wellbeing policies, support managers to conduct incident investigations, analyse performance data to identify trends and make recommendations to improve our processes, and also be responsible for delivering HSWU projects and initiatives that raise awareness about safety issues and drive continual improvements.

Strong stakeholder engagement skills are essential, as you will liaise with Trade Unions and managers across all levels of the organisation. This role offers the opportunity to make a significant impact on workplace safety and wellbeing.
