Ryan to the rescue!
Russell Hillington welcomed Ryan Paton in the role of H&S Advisor in May. We catch up with Ryan below.
My favourite thing about my job is the people. I get involved with all aspects of the business, from the operatives on the shop floor to senior management. It’s beneficial to have these conversations, build these relationships and understand the business needs.
I applied for the role of Health and Safety advisor with John G Russell as I was ready to expand my knowledge from a construction background, into logistics. The opportunity was perfect for my career growth to gain experience and knowledge on the industry hazards, culture, and people.
My roles includes monitoring compliance with company policy and procedures, managing contractors, investigating accidents/ incidents, root cause analysis identifying remedial actions to prevent reoccurrence, generating and reviewing safe systems of work & risk assessments, facilities management regarding safety critical improvements.
My interests outside of work include going to the gym, playing football and spending time with my family and friends.
If I could switch jobs with anyone in the company it would be the marketing team 😊
If I never had to work again, I would you spend my time Travelling the world.
