I have over 20 years’ experience as a Health & Safety Consultant providing help, expertise and support to a wide range of businesses in the South Devon area. For 6 of these years I was also employed on a part-time basis by one of my former clients as the Health & Safety Manager of their manufacturing site, which I carried out alongside my consultancy business.
I have worked with multiple companies ranging from manufacturing sites to warehouses, from offices to companies in the service industry and from golf clubs to sports clubs to name a few, so I am confident I can provide you with the expertise you require for your business, whatever it may be.
My services range from the development and introduction of a full health and safety system to being held on a retained service facilitating the position of ‘Competent Person’ and assisting annually for accreditation purposes.
I am experienced at working with all levels in a business, from Managing Directors, middle management to employees on the shop floor.
