Join to apply for the HSEQ Assistant (Part time) role at Northwood
At Northwood, we are dedicated to zero-harm, empowering colleagues, leading with humility, and ultimately, coming together as one family.
At our Lancaster Mill, we have a fantastic part-time opportunity available to grow into HSEQ and promote health and safety, quality, and sustainability across our business.
As our part-time HSEQ Advisor, you will receive mentorship from our HSEQ experts and gain exposure to areas that will unlock further prospects in your career.
The working pattern will be 25 hours per week, ideally across 5 days, however we could potentially accommodate a 4-day week (Monday as one of those days each week due to business requirements).
About the RoleWhat you will be doing:
Health & Safety: You will promote a culture of safety, assist with training programs, and investigate incidents to prevent recurrence. You will assist in creating/reviewing risk assessments and SOPs and supporting with the Safety and Action Plan. In addition, you will be maintaining the COSHH register and carrying out COSHH Assessments for chemicals arriving onsite.
Environment: You’ll help monitor environmental performance, support energy-saving initiatives, and ensure compliance with permits and regulations. We have come a long way with our sustainability, and this is your chance to drive it forward.
Quality: Occasionally, you will assist in external audits of the QMS, including ISO9001, BRC and FSC and Customer audits, helping to ensure our products meet technical specifications. You will also take ownership of the external audit corrective action plans, ensuring timely completion and response.
Procurement: Ensuring cost-consciousness, you will assist in the procurement of PPE and stock, as well as training equipment and documentation. This will enable you to foster and maintain long lasting relationships with suppliers and contractors.
Your development: You may have the opportunity to deputise for the HSEQ Manager in their absence, to gain experience and insight into H&S leadership areas.
In addition to the above, there is much more exposure to gain in this role which will set you on the right path to progress.
