Hi All
I`m currently working as a h&s adviser within a const. company and thinking of moving to a consultancy as CDM co-ordinator as I have had a few offers.
Has anyone any pointers for the difference's in these positions ?
Has anyone made this career step ?
If so how are You finding the change ?
Do you think it`s a good move ?
Any response's would be appreciated

Hi jmc
It is really up to yourself, I started off working as a CDM Co - Ordinator in a property consultancy, but did'nt fancy it after two years there and so swapped to work as a health and safety advisor in a construction company where I have been more settled in.
As I said it is really up to you, but bear in mind it is more cut throat in a consultancy than in a company as a advisor in my opinion. The other side of the coin is that you are the master of your own destiny.
Hope this helps
John

Hi john
Thanks for your responce
I wonder if You could elaborate on (cut throat)
I thought You are working with the client, main contractor, etc at the start of the project to try to recognise any safety issues that may incur.
You have me concerned now
