Search² is supporting a specialist Health, Safety and Operational Compliance consultancy as they continue to expand their UK consultancy team.

About the Business
Our client is a specialist provider of Health & Safety, Food Safety and operational compliance consultancy services, supporting multi-site organisations across sectors including hospitality, contract catering, healthcare, leisure and facilities management.
With almost four decades of industry experience, they've built an excellent reputation for helping organisations improve standards through practical advice, coaching and independent auditing.
Rather than taking an enforcement-led approach, their consultants work collaboratively with clients to identify opportunities for improvement and support continual development.
As client demand continues to increase across the UK, they are now looking to strengthen their consultancy team.

This opportunity offers something slightly different from many consultancy positions.
You'll have the autonomy to manage your own geographical region whilst benefiting from the support of an experienced and collaborative team.
