A day in the life
You’ll be based at one of our sites. This means that you can closely track what's happening and people can easily ask you any questions throughout their shifts. This role is all about spotting potential issues before they happen.
You’ll spend a lot of time checking the site and getting to know the way that people use equipment. By understanding how every task and machine works, you'll be able to think about the best way to keep processes safe.
