A rapidly expanding health and safety consultancy is creating even more jobs in Northamptonshire with the roll out of a dedicated recruitment drive.

Acorn Safety Services has grown exponentially in the past year, appointing 12 new members of staff, as well as promoting operations manager Zeynep Guzelkasap to operations director.

Now Zeynep, who has recently appointed a new operations coordinator and a new health and safety manager, as well as two legionella experts, is looking to fill four additional roles in the team – three fire risk assessors and one Construction/Construction Design Management (CDM) health and safety consultant.

Acorn Safety Services, which provides health and safety services to businesses, charities and organisations across the UK, has just moved into new premises in Moulton Park with sister organisation Acorn Analytical Services after outgrowing two offices in two years.

When the vacancies are filled, the new appointments will take the growing team to 18 staff.

Zeynep said: “We have grown organically and quickly over the past year. The appointments we have made have been strategically planned for our continued growth in order to best serve our valued customers.

“We chose staff members very carefully as we are very proud of our team and culture here at Acorn Safety Services. Now that we have made the decision to have dedicated legionella, fire and health and safety managers, we’re able to further build on the three specific teams.

“The summer is renowned for being a really busy time in our industry, so if you have the relevant expertise and experience, we’d be delighted to hear from you.”

For further information about the roles available, contact Acorn Safety Services at www.acornhealthandsafety.co.uk or call 01604 930380.

How to get into Fire Safety
