Why Health and Safety

Every workplace in the UK has a legal duty to protect its employees, which is why health and safety professionals are in constant demand. From construction and logistics to healthcare and corporate offices, skilled specialists are essential to reducing risks, ensuring compliance, and safeguarding staff.

This demand translates into competitive salaries, career progression, and long-term job security.

How It Works

Step 1 – IOSH Managing Safely

Begin with IOSH Managing Safely, an internationally recognised course designed for managers and supervisors. You will learn how to assess and control risks, understand legal responsibilities, and investigate incidents.

Step 2 – NEBOSH General Certificate

Build on your foundation with the NEBOSH General Certificate, the gold standard for health and safety professionals. This qualification covers workplace hazards, health and safety legislation, and how to design and implement effective safety systems. It’s one of the most widely recognised certifications across industries and opens the door to mid-level health and safety roles.

Step 3 – Risk Assessments

Next, you’ll complete a series of workplace-standard risk assessments. This step focuses on the practical application of everything you’ve learned, ensuring you can identify hazards, evaluate risks, and recommend control measures.

Step 4 – Job Placement

Once qualified, our recruitment team works with you directly to prepare applications, set up interviews, and secure your first role in health and safety.
