For over 100 years, the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents has worked to create a safer society and prevent accidents which needlessly kill, injure and maim thousands of individuals each year. We have grown into a unique and well-rounded safety charity with an increasing global influence necessary to drive change and strive towards our vision of an accident-free world.

We are seeking an experienced and passionate individual to facilitate and deliver water and leisure consultancy to members of the public and clients including reviews on SuDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) and water safety.
