QHSE Adviser Manufacturing / Engineering | Full-time | Ipswich (Great Blakenham) If you work in QHSE and you’re tired of roles that sit on the sidelines — updating documents but never really influencing what happens on site — this one is different. This is a hands-on QHSE Adviser role within a group of manufacturing and engineering businesses based at Claydon Business Park. You’ll work alongside an experienced Group QHSE Manager and be embedded in day-to-day operations, not parked behind a desk. Why this role exists The business wants stronger, more consistent QHSE standards across site. That means someone who can support systems and audits, but also step into the operation, challenge unsafe practice, investigate incidents properly and help teams do things better. This role isn’t about box-ticking. It’s about building a positive QHSE culture that actually sticks. What you’ll really be doing * Supporting and maintaining ISO-aligned management systems (9001, 14001, 45001) * Carrying out risk assessments and hazard identification in a live, working environment * Supporting and running internal audits, then following actions through * Investigating incidents and near misses properly — not just writing reports * Advising on safe use of equipment, inspections and training * Working closely with managers to improve quality, safety and environmental performance * Stepping in to provide baseline cover when the QHSE Manager is absent You’ll be visible on site and expected to build credibility with people who are busy doing the work. Who this will suit This will suit someone early-to-mid career in QHSE who wants more responsibility and exposure. You’re likely: * From a manufacturing or engineering environment * Confident enough to challenge, but sensible about how you do it * Comfortable balancing compliance with operational reality * Looking to step up, not hide behind procedure Formal H&S or ISO qualifications are useful, but practical, demonstrable QHSE experience matters more. What’s on offer * Permanent, full-time role (37.5 hours) * Salary negotiable based on experience and qualifications * Broad exposure across QHSE, not a narrow admin remit * A genuine development role working alongside a senior QHSE lead Next step If you want a QHSE role where you can learn, influence and be taken seriously on site, this is worth a conversation
