You will liaise with Customer Service and People Teams regarding customer accident complaints and monitor changes in legislation and court rulings impacting insurance and safety.
You will attend quarterly meetings with third-party cost consultants on landlord insurance matters, regularly check the Display Screen Equipment (DSE) database, provide advice and carry out assessments for Head Office employees when required, and maintain and update the Safety Handbook on the Superdrug and Savers Store Intranet.
