Hi
I have recently been working for 3 years as a Health & Safety Assistant in a warehouse distribution facility owned by an independent charity. I have gained Health Safety experience from previous employment, & have Nebosh General & Environmental certificates, Tech Iosh membership.
I have an operational back ground having worked over 25 years as a Process Operator / Technician in the Chemical & upstream oil & gas industry. I am actively seeking employment & aspire to be a successful Health & Safety professional but I’m feeling disappointed & frustrated at not being able to secure a new position I have had 4 interviews within the last 12months but I have not been able to gain a second interview or be offered a position.
Feedback from employers suggests “I have relevant skills but they have offered the position to someone more suitable with similar industry experience” I am based in the West Cheshire area willing to travel & looking to secure a Position in any industry in Health & Safety role on either a Permanent, Temporary, contract, part time or casual basis. Also willing to take a work experience role to gain more experience. I would appreciate any guidance or advice. Thanks.

My advise is quite simply dont give up trying. 4 interviews in 12 months is not a lot, get yourself on as many job agency sites as you can, get youself a really good CV and taylor it to the specific job you are applying for.
Networking is always a good idea, get youself to and involved with your local IOSH group. Good luck, and keep going.
