Health Safety Environment Advisor

At Saint-Gobain Professional Services, we go beyond ticking compliance boxes—we partner with businesses to create safer, healthier, and more sustainable workplaces. For us, EHS isn’t just about policies—it’s about people. We work hand-in-hand with our businesses, helping them embed world-class Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) standards into their everyday operations. Now, we’re looking for an EHS Partner to join our team and make a real difference. This is not a desk-based compliance role. It’s a dynamic, hands-on position where you’ll be on-site, engaging with teams, building relationships, and driving real change. Our sites are dotted around the country so travel will be a big part of your role. You can be based anywhere in the UK and will be based from home when not on site.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Partnering with business units—building strong working relationships and tailoring EHS solutions to their needs.
• Providing practical guidance—offering clear, relevant, and actionable advice to help teams manage risks effectively.
• Engaging on-site—being present in the workplace, offering support, and making EHS a real, tangible priority.
• Investigating incidents & driving improvements—helping businesses learn from challenges and implement long-term solutions.
• Collaborating across teams—working closely with leadership, operational staff, and external stakeholders to drive best practices.
• Delivering training & coaching—supporting teams in developing their EHS knowledge and confidence.
• Travelling regularly—visiting sites across the UK & Ireland to provide in-person support and build relationships.

What We’re Looking For

We know that qualifications can be taught, but the right mindset and approach are what truly make a difference. If you’re an engaging, proactive, and solutions-focused professional, we’d love to hear from you. You’ll thrive in this role if you:

• Have experience in EHS—formal qualifications (such as NEBOSH) are great, but a passion for safety and the ability to apply practical solutions is more important.
• Are a natural relationship-builder—you enjoy working closely with people, gaining trust, and influencing at all levels.
• Have a problem-solving mindset—you’re curious, proactive, and always looking for ways to improve processes.
• Are hands-on and visible—this isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit behind a desk all day. You’ll be out on-site, engaging with teams, and making a real difference.
• Can work independently and manage your time effectively—this is an autonomous role, and you’ll be trusted to plan your work and travel based on business needs.
• Understand the importance of customer experience—you’ll be working in partnership with teams, not just enforcing rules.

And what about flexibility?

The world of work is changing. At Saint-Gobain, we’re always open to new ways of working. Everyone has different needs and commitments. Our standard working pattern is 8am-4pm or 9am-5pm Monday to Friday – though if you need some flexibility- we’ll happily discuss any need you might have for this role: flexible hours, job-sharing, part-time working, or anything else that matters to you. We can’t promise to meet every request when we’re recruiting. But we do promise to listen. If you match our criteria, we will be in touch to discuss your experience and more about you as a person, we look forward to hearing from you!
