- Regular interaction with clients, contractors, colleagues and building occupiers will form an important part of the role, ensuring projects are delivered safely, professionally and to the highest technical standards.
Technical Learning Agility

This role will suit someone who enjoys learning, solving technical challenges and building expertise within a regulated industry. A genuine commitment to personal development and achieving apprenticeship milestones will be key to your success.
- Safety sits at the heart of everything we do. You'll develop a detailed understanding of health, safety and regulatory requirements while working within a highly controlled environment.

About You
You take safety seriously and understand the importance of following procedures properly. Working to strict rules, method statements, and risk assessments feels natural to you, and you don’t cut corners. You’re calm, focused, and able to stay composed even in regulated environments where inspections, audits, or oversight are part of the job.
You can work independently once trained, taking responsibility for your tasks, but you also communicate clearly with teammates and supervisors to make sure work is completed safely and correctly. You’re motivated by doing work that matters — contributing to environmental safety, compliance, and protecting public health.
