Description
HSE Trainer (On-site, UAE | UAE-Based Candidates Only)
Full time, on-site 5 days a week in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with travel between sites.
Help build a safer workplace for employees and contractors. In this role, you will support one of our major clients by delivering a Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) training programme of more than 40 modules at two large industrial sites. The aim of every session is lasting behaviour change: people who spot hazards, speak up, stop work when it is unsafe and follow safe systems of work on the shop floor.
What you'll do
Deliver 40+ safety modules, covering general safety content and safety tool training, in classroom, practical and on-site settings.
Learn the client's tools and procedures through the induction provided, and reach sign-off on each module within the agreed timeframe.
Adapt your delivery to mixed audiences, including operators, technicians, contractors and supervisors with different levels of English and literacy.
Use facilitation, real scenarios and practical demonstration to build hazard awareness and safe decision-making.
Coach learners to challenge unsafe acts, use stop-work authority and report near misses.
Reinforce learning through follow-up sessions, toolbox talks and on-site observations.
Assess knowledge and practical competence, and report behaviour and learning trends to the Lead.
Keep attendance, assessment and completion records accurate in the LMS (PeopleFluent).
Make sure training meets company procedures, UAE federal requirements and, for Abu Dhabi, ADOSH-SF.
Support Emiratisation objectives through the training and coaching of UAE National employees.
What you bring
A degree in Engineering or Science.
NEBOSH International General Certificate (IGC) or a similar recognised safety qualification.
5 to 15 years in manufacturing operations or maintenance, with a background in safety management, HSE or technical training delivery.
Experience in an industrial sector such as aluminium, steel, oil and gas, petrochemicals or heavy manufacturing. Candidates from other industrial sectors are welcome.
Proven experience delivering training to adult, shop-floor audiences.
Excellent written and spoken English.
A confident, engaging facilitation style, with coaching skills that change how people behave on-site.
Comfort using an LMS and Microsoft Office.
A valid UAE driving licence, and eligibility to live and work in the UAE.
Preferred: IOSH and/or ISO 45001, ADOSH-SF OSH Practitioner registration (or eligibility), a Train the Trainer qualification, and experience with behaviour-based safety programmes.
This role supports a dedicated client program and will be employed locally in the UAE in alignment with regional employment requirements.
If you know how to change how people act on-site and not just what they know, we would like to hear from you. Apply with your CV and an example of training you delivered on the shop floor.
