Hello, I am spanish and I have a Master in Health and Safety from Spain.
I also have two years of experience working as Technical Expert in Health and Safety in Spain, in a company related with construction and electricity (lines of high and medium voltage).
I would like to know if I with this qualification, I can work in the UK in Health and Safety or if there is any course I have to do before.
Thank you for your help.

As a member state of the EU your qualification will be recognised. There is no need for you to complete any courses before starting to look for work. I would advise that you apply for membership of IOSH though as this would mean that the institute has formally recognised your qualification and it would allay any fears potential employers might have regarding its veracity. All employers should double check the qualifications placed before them on a CV and not just accept that they are real becauce they are in "black & white".
