ABOUT JACOB JOHN OVENDALE
I\'m currently transitioning into a career in Health & Safety, bringing a strong track record in team leadership, compliance, and risk management from the hospitality and customer service sectors. After leading multiple H&S initiatives—resulting in two consecutive green ratings in NSF inspections—I\'ve discovered a genuine passion for safety, operational standards, and creating safer work environments.Now actively pursuing a career change into the health & safety industry, I’m working toward the NEBOSH Health and Safety Management for Construction qualification to formalize my expertise and build a long-term future in the field.With a background in recruitment, software sales, and team management, I offer highly transferable skills: effective communication, incident prevention, training delivery, and problem-solving under pressure. I also bring a neurodiverse perspective, which enhances my attention to detail, structured thinking, and process-driven approach.I\'m looking to grow in H&S roles such as safety coordinator, compliance officer, or trainee/advisor positions—where I can contribute to a strong safety culture and continue learning.Open to networking, mentoring, and new opportunities in the field—let’s connect!
