Why The Works?

🏆 10th Best Big Company to Work For 2024 - 'Best Companies'

We don’t just sell products.

We inspire reading, learning, creativity and play.

Become a Health, Safety & Fire Partner

We’re on the lookout for someone who’s passionate about keeping people safe and places compliant. As our Health & Safety, Fire Risk Assessor, you’ll be out and about visiting stores, carrying out assessments, and helping our teams understand what good looks like when it comes to safety.

Your Mission

Undertake suitable and sufficient Health and Safety and Fire Risk Assessments (FRA’s), in compliance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

Visit stores and compile fire risk assessment reports through an online portal system, highlighting potential hazards and to provide recommendations to reduce or eliminate risks from these hazards.

Fire risk assessment reports will, in most cases, be confined to the internal and external areas of our stores.

Completed fire risk assessments will be used by the Health and Safety Manager, maintenance team and Directors to initiate repairs, or any other procedures required, to ensure the stores remain a safe environment.

Apply relevant authoritative guidance from central government including PAS 79 and PAS 9980 plus the Fire Safety Act 2021 and the Building Regulations.

Escalate issues to the appropriate level if action is delayed or has not been delivered to the correct standard.

Complete H&S Audit & Inspections as appropriate and feedback to the store teams to complete their understanding so we can ensure the stores reach a very good level of compliance.

Be available and have confidence to liaise with enforcement authorities as and when required.

Carry out post incident/fire inspections & report on findings.

Are able to look at issues through a wider lens, ensuring our teams operate in a safe manner whilst educating them through discussion and demonstration of good practices.

Our Values

We are Crafty 🎨 | Smart with what we've got.

We are Caring 💛 | Heart in every action.

We are Can-do 🚀| Energy that gets it done.

We Listen. We Care

Each year, we run an anonymous colleague engagement survey. This is so important for us to hear your feedback and suggestions. We want to know what’s going great, and what needs a couple of tweaks to help make The Works the best place you’ve ever worked! You’ll have opportunity to help give us that direction.

Promoting Diversity, Inclusion, and Applying Reasonable Adjustments

At The Works, we are proud to have an inclusive culture where everyone truly feels able to be themselves. Our roles are open to all, including under-represented groups such as ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, carers & members of the LGBTQ+ community (including those who identify as lesbian, gay, bi, trans, non-binary, or use another term).

We are open to discussions around working hours and flexible working. And, where possible, we'll try to support this. If you need reasonable adjustments for an interview you might attend with us, let us know in your application and we’ll be happy to help!

We don’t just sell products. We inspire reading, learning, creativity and play.

Because when people spend time doing what they love, it’s Time Well Spent.

And with the right passion - It All Starts With You.
