Job Description
A well-established waste and recycling operation is adding a senior Health & Safety Adviser to its in-house EHS team.
This is a substantive, hands-on role for an experienced practitioner who is ready to take ownership of H&S across a multi-site portfolio — 22 health and safety regulatory sites and 10 environmental regulatory sites.
The role sits within a flat structure, reporting directly to senior management.
The incoming adviser will take meaningful responsibilities from day one, working with a small, experienced team in a sector that is stable, essential, and operationally demanding.
What the role involves
Risk assessments, method statements, and safety statements across a multi-site estate
Site visits to operational waste and recycling facilities in Dublin, Meath, and North Dublin
Day-to-day advisory support to site management and operational teams
Regulatory compliance management — engaging with enforcement authorities as required
Contributing to the ongoing development of safety culture across the organisation
Potential to lead on compliance specialisms (ISO and related frameworks) as the role develops
What you bring
Minimum five years' health and safety experience in a comparable heavy industry or operational environment
Confident in producing risk assessments, method statements, and safety statements independently
Strong interpersonal skills — able to build trust with site teams, management, and regulators alike
A generalist profile — practical breadth is valued over narrow specialism
Comfortable in an active, industrial environment; not looking for a desk-based advisory role
Relevant qualification (NFQ Level 7+ or equivalent in Health & Safety or related discipline)
