Mr Andrew Buckley BSc(hons), FIIRSM
BSc, FIIRSM
Overview
With a well-established career in health and safety spanning diverse industries and roles, I bring extensive expertise across various sectors.
From starting in the construction industry after completing my apprenticeship and management graduate scheme, I've cultivated a wealth of experience in other fields such as logistics, public transport, utilities, overhead powerlines (1-400kv) among others, showcasing comprehensive capabilities.
Currently, I am firmly positioned within the rail industry, where I apply my extensive knowledge and experience in Safety, Health, Environment, and Quality (SHEQ). Providing advise among other activities.
My qualifications include a degree in Construction Management, along with certifications such as NEBOSH, IEMA, and ISO Lead Auditor etc, as well as various professional memberships. These credentials reflect my commitment to high standards and quality work. (Further details are available on my LinkedIn profile.)
My approach as a competent person is transparent, ensuring seamless and professional collaboration between stakeholders.
Look forward to reaching out.
