Step into a role where your clinical expertise shapes safer workplaces across the UK.

OH Medical is proud to be partnering with a leading Occupational Health provider to recruit an experienced Occupational Health Advisor – Health Surveillance. This is a fully home-based opportunity, ideal for an OHA who thrives on autonomy, clinical decision-making, and delivering high-quality, evidence-based advice.

​

The Occupational Health Advisor Role:

This is a specialist role focused on Health Surveillance escalation and risk management, working closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure best practice and compliance with HSE guidance.
