What is the Role?
At SSE, Safety is our number one value. We live by our licence, if it's not safe, we don't do it. We focus on ensuring that we have no injuries or serious environmental incidents and that people are healthy and happy at work. Our Safety, Health & Wellbeing (SHW) function helps our teams across SSE to deliver this and ensure that we get everyone home safely at the end of the working day.
The Occupational Safety Advisor is a highly technical, competent, professional role in the Offshore Delivery team that provides proactive and pragmatic safety advice and guidance to internal and external stakeholders during the execution of large capital projects.

- Developing and reviewing Client, Principal Designer and Contractor safety related documentation in a timely manner and to a high standard.
- Actively participating in risk assessments, safety inspections, incident investigations, performance analysis and safety campaigns.
- Fostering a positive safety culture by driving safety standards across all areas and championing the use of SSE's Safety Licence: if it's not safe, we don't do it!
The role is required to support worksites in Orkney. The position is open to Orkney based personnel or persons living in the UK Mainland on a rotational position.
What do I need?
- You should have demonstrable qualifications and experience in safety on large construction projects, with a pragmatic, flexible, people centred approach.
- You should have sound knowledge and application of Health & Safety legislation, in particular Construction (Design & Management) Regulations 2015.
- You'll demonstrate professional internal and external stakeholder management skills to drive cross business collaboration to build a high performing, commercially and customer focused safety culture.
- You should hold a graduate qualification in Occupational Safety (e.g. NEBOSH Diploma) or relevant equivalent or be able to demonstrate equivalent knowledge through experience. Membership of IOSH (or equivalent organisation) is also preferred.
- You should be an excellent communicator with a natural ability for building and maintaining relationships with both internal and external stakeholders. You'll have the ability to use a wide range of techniques to influence change at all levels of the organisation and will possess a well-structured, systematic approach with the ability to identify and analyse complex technical issues and understand risks in order to provide appropriate solutions.
Due to the nature of travel associated with this role, a valid UK Driving Licence is essential.
