Dear All,
Can anyone give me any advice in obtaining an EHS role in Australia or New Zealand, preferably in Management.

I am Nebosh dip 2 qualified, MIOSH, AIEMA and 8 years experience in chemical industry.

Any details of agencies or websites would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Try these although I'm not too sure whether even with dip2 etc. you would be qualified enough. A degree seems the minimum Qualification. I also hear its pretty expensive setting up to apply. Let me know how you get on please.

I have recently tried the skilled migration route for Australia. The qualification assessment came back as negative for the NEBOSH Dip 2. They require an equivalent to an Australian degree. Cost about £150.00 to find that out.

Hi Ron
Sorry to read that you might have difficulty getting into Australia
What about a working Visa then finding a sponcer (employer willing to take you on)
Migration rules are tough it appears !
The reality is that there is a large void in availability of Safety Qualified people here.
You may have looked at various web pages and newspaper advertisments to see the amount of opportunity.
Hang in there and maybe do some more study to reach the higher qualification. I dont think it is a matter of brain power but stayin power to complete the degree
Good luck Phill
