Job description

Our client, a well-established manufacturing site in Burnley, holding ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 accreditation, is looking for a hands-on EHS Advisor to own day-to-day environmental, health and safety activity on site — chemical handling, working at height, waste management and fire safety, run largely independently.

Why join as a EHS Advisor? 

  • Join a growing business genuinely investing in its EHS function, with real scope to shape the role as the site grows
  • High employer pension contribution, plus the autonomy and consultancy support to make the role your own

What you'll be doing

  • Own EHS compliance day-to-day: COSHH and risk assessments, internal audits, and preparation for the annual ISO 14001/45001 audits
  • Manage chemical, Ardrox line, cooling tower and effluent processes — PTW, RPE/PPE, ordering and stock control
  • Lead accident investigations, fire/evacuation management and contractor control (RAMS, inductions, site access)
  • Manage waste (hazardous and non-hazardous), site policies and statutory training, plus new starter manual handling inductions and PPE stock

What we're looking for

  • Broad EHS experience covering both environmental and health & safety, with working knowledge of ISO 14001 and 45001 to audit standard
  • A hands-on approach, not a desk-based policy role, with NEBOSH or IOSH preferred
  • Sector background is flexible — manufacturing experience isn't required, provided the core EHS skill set is strong

Everlinked is an equal opportunities employment agency.
