Job summary:

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is establishing the new Building Safety Regulator (BSR) with the intention of keeping high-rise buildings safe and enable people to feel safe in their homes.

Working with residents and industry to make sure everybody has a voice, BSR will oversee changes to the safety and performance of all buildings and raise industry professional standards year on year.

BSR will serve as a lasting tribute to those who have lost their lives due to poor and substandard buildings and will help ensure tragedies of such proportions as Grenfell are consigned to the past.

Over the coming years, as the powers of BSR increase, we will continue to build our team, creating opportunities for both technical specialists and non-specialists.

At HSE, we are proud to be able to offer our people the opportunity to work in a hybrid way which combines the flexibility for working from home and the office.

This is a voluntary, non-contractual arrangement and your allocated office will be your contractual place of work.

This role will also involve travel to sites across England therefore flexibility to be able to travel when needed for on-site visits & meetings is necessary.
