Posted By Andy Walker I started as officer and then became manager. Same job same responsibilities same pay. I dont think it matters what your title is though sometimes people take more notice if you're a manager.

Posted By The toecap I can only say that a manager, manages the situation. I would assume that the officer is similar to an advisor but with a slightly old fashioned title. (just guessing)

Posted By S Joyce If you look at the jobs section of SHP, managers seem to get higher salaries than advisors/officers. They also tend to ask for more years experience (5 years or more)

Posted By B Honestly, I think it depends on the company; one company's advisor is another's officer is another's manager. I would assume that someone with the title 'manager' would definately be 'overseeing' health and safety for a company (managing in fact!), probably with people to manage as well. If I saw a job with manager in the title I would assume they are looking for someone with significant experience, but that doesn't mean that an officer/advisor won't be in the same situation elsewhere, depending on the hierarchy within the company.
Sorry, that answer probably isn't a lot of use to you.

Posted By ITK The term manager implies manages budgets and staff (amongst other things).

Posted By Peter Hamilton The company placing the ad? To me whenever I read an ad with "Officer" it suggests a company that thinks safety needs regulating, "Manager" suggests they understand it is an integral part of management of the organisation. They pay the money, you take the choice?
