Job Description

ABOUT JSM

At JSM Group, we are a leading specialist infrastructure engineering company. We design and install the complex power networks, digital infrastructure and specialist systems a future-focused worldwide marketplace needs — from high-power grid connections to critical utilities, data centres to renewable energy.

From High-Power grid connections to Critical Utilities. Data Centres to Renewable Energy, our full turnkey solution teams manage the full scope to help advise and deliver complex infrastructure projects at speed, on time and with reduced legislation, technical and commercial risks.

ABOUT THE TEAM

You'll join JSM's SHEQ team [confirm division/region this role sits in — e.g. a specific business line or geography], supporting Safety, Health, Environment and Quality across our utilities and infrastructure projects. The team's mission is to enable a harm free future: promoting safety, health and wellbeing, protecting the environment, and giving operational teams the knowledge, skills and tools to work responsibly and improve continually.

You'll report to the SHEQ Manager and work alongside site supervisors, project managers, engineers and the wider SHEQ team, plus client-side contacts where relevant. The role is site-based across [name specific locations/region — e.g. River Road, Creek Road, Potters Bar and other JSM sites], with the day-to-day split between desk-based reporting and time on site auditing, coaching and solving problems with delivery teams.

ABOUT THE ROLE

This role exists to give JSM's operational teams direct, on-the-ground SHEQ advice — keeping delivery compliant with legislation and best practice, and closing the gap between policy and site reality. You'll be the first point of contact for SHEQ matters in your area of the business, and a visible driver of JSM's harm free ambition.

Day to day, you will:

  • Audit and inspect sites, providing independent assurance that SHEQ and management system requirements are being met
  • Investigate accidents, incidents and utility damages, applying Just Culture and a Human Factors approach to find root causes and agree preventative action
  • Check competency for critical risk activities, including CAT & Genny/safe digging, plant operation, and deep excavation and temporary works
  • Review and compile project SHEQ documentation, including CPPs, QMPs, risk registers, RAMS, COSHH assessments and emergency plans
  • Run specialist monitoring activity, including drug and alcohol testing, face fit testing and Legionella checks
  • Use SHEQ data and KPIs to drive objective performance conversations with operational teams, management and clients

This is a site-based role covering various locations, with travel between sites. Expect occasional weekend or night work to support out-of-hours operations.

ABOUT YOU

You'll do well here if you recognise yourself in this:

  • You're hungry to grow and you take personal responsibility for your work and your development.
  • You're comfortable with complexity and you'd rather solve a hard technical problem than avoid it.
  • You work well across disciplines — you know good delivery depends on civil, power and digital teams pulling in the same direction.
  • You use sound judgment under pressure and you're straight with people about risk and programme.
  • You care about people going home safe, and you'd rather have the direct conversation on site than let a risk slide.

EXPERIENCE

Essential

  • SHEQ adviser experience in a utilities or engineering environment
  • Post-NEBOSH Certificate experience: under 3 years for Grade 7b, 3 years or more for Grade 7a
  • Working knowledge of NRSWA and HSG47, and of ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001

Desirable

  • Knowledge of Behavioural Based Safety or Human Factors
  • Experience working with DNO, data centre or similar utilities infrastructure clients

REQUIREMENTS & QUALIFICATIONS

Essential

  • NEBOSH Certificate (Grade 7b), or NEBOSH Diploma or other Level 6/7 qualification (Grade 7a)
  • IOSH Graduate or Technical Safety Practitioner membership (Grade 7b), or IOSH Chartered membership (Grade 7a)
  • EUSR or CSCS card
  • Full UK driving licence and right to work in the UK

Desirable

  • ISO Internal Auditor qualification
  • Chartered status, or working towards it, beyond the grade minimum

If you meet most but not all of the above, we'd still like to hear from you. We'll look at what you've delivered and what you're capable of, not just the list.

ENGINEERED TO BELONG

At JSM Group, we're not just shaping the future of utilities, we're raising the bar for what a great place to work looks like.

Our values aren't words on a wall. They drive every decision we make and every project we take on, pushing us to go further, do better, and leave a real mark on the industry.

We want people who are hungry to grow, ready to take on complex challenges, and excited to work alongside clients and partners who are changing the landscape of the utility sector across the UK, Europe and beyond.

In return, we give you the room to develop fast, the work to stretch you, and the platform to build a career that means something — and here's what that looks like in practice:

WHAT WE OFFER

In addition to an industry competitive salary, we offer:

  • Car allowance, where applicable
  • Performance-linked bonus, where applicable
  • Pension — up to 4% employer matched
  • days annual leave plus bank holidays — edit as required
  • Health cash plan (BUPA) — cashback on dental, optical and physiotherapy
  • Healthcare plan (Benenden Health) — faster medical advice, private diagnostics and treatment alongside the NHS
  • Employee assistance programme
  • Electric car scheme — lease a fully maintained EV through salary sacrifice
  • Funded training and development through our Training Centre and Competency Cloud, professional membership and a clear route to chartership or higher authorisation

We're committed to making our recruitment process accessible. If you need an adjustment at any stage — to the application, the interview format or the assessment — tell us and we'll sort it. Every application is assessed on skills, experience and potential.
