Are you confident delivering health and safety training in both the classroom and on-site, covering practical areas such as working at height, lifting operations and hazard identification?
Can you bring the credibility to work with plant instructors, operational teams, and senior leaders, while keeping training grounded and practical?

If these questions strike a chord, you may be interested in this Health and Safety Training Instructor position, working at the leading port operation on the River Thames. This site sits as a piece to a much larger organisation with a multitude of ports across the United Kingdom.

The successful Health and Safety Training Instructor will have:
* A strong background in Health and Safety, ideally supported by a NEBOSH General Certificate (or equivalent).
