About this role
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.
Requirements
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.
