SHEQ Advisor Review

My role includes submitting key data to our clients, assisting clients on joint audits, completing audits on our sites every 6 weeks, implementing safety programmes, ensuring our workers are fully trained and compliant, ensuring all of our live spreadsheet and site lists are compliant. I also support our occupational health team.

Since being employed by JNB I have developed people/ communication skills, professional conversational skills, report writing skills, time management, problem solving and safety and environmental awareness skills. Being in the team I am you need a massive attention to detail which has been a big skill to learn.

It was daunting when starting this role as i am a young girl starting in the construction industry, i had no previous experience and i had to put myself on a site and tell site managers who have years of experience that they are doing something wrong/not working safely. However, everyone I have worked with/spoken too have been so supportive and understand I am learning and everyone starts somewhere. I am really enjoying my programme and know the more experience I have the more I will continue to like it and excel in the role. JN Bentley is a great company for benefits , events and all of my colleagues have been so supporting helpful in my development.

My programme is structured well, I have a college session once a month with college work assigned to me. i have progress reviews with both college and my line manager every 3 months. I have Weekly catch ups with my line manager with opportunities to discuss issues. I am given the opportunities to focus on college work when and as I need. My team members are regularly asking me if I need any evidence to submit to college so they can help. It is helpful that someone else in my team is also going through the same programme so we can discuss and help each other along the way.

I am supported a lot by my line manager and colleagues. We speak everyday and have a weekly front of mind call. I am constantly asked if my workload is to much, if i feel okay with everything, if i need help with anything which is great. On a bigger scale i feel supported as we have so many benefits, online mental health help etc, happiness surveys.

Myself and my college assessor have a dedicated hour monthly college session, this is where we discuss work he assigned me last month, work he's going to assign me this month and work in general. I email a few times over the month to check I'm completing it right in which he always replies to promptly. I have been supported with work books and guidance sheets.

A lot of my college questions are questions on how JN Bentley work, Completing these questions have been good as its made me research why and how we do things here. Questions also are about legislations, this again has made me research the legislations and how we are compliant with them all. My qualification helps me perform better as it introduced me to the legislation and role in general for me to build on and extend my knowledge myself.

JN Bentley have a team and section nameed ' Sports and Social ' for lots of activities we have been go karting, bowling , escape rooms. We have a charity ball every June. Last summer we had 3 'family fun days' for all employees to attend, This year we are having a 3 day sports day. We have gardening clubs, golf clubs, football matches.

Yes

I would refer JN Bentley to a friend as its a great company who really look after their staff. I don't have any previous experience in this sector however i just know its a great company, everyone here is so friendly and happy to support always. The company is so big the support is endless. There are so many opportunities for development and further education here too.

I would tell people who have no previous experience to give it time. I'm am over a year in and still know I'm no where near educated as i want to be however understand it takes time and it will come. Its a great company to work for and we are only getting bigger.
