Who it is for

Built for other health and safety consultancies

This is a dedicated health and safety consultant for consultancies — not a general consultancy page. It is built for other health and safety consultancies, fire risk assessment companies, compliance companies and facilities management companies, as well as larger consultancies needing extra audit capacity. TIPS Consultancy Ltd provides subcontract, freelance and associate health and safety support, plus outsourced health and safety audit support, for organisations across Leicester, the Midlands and the wider UK.

01

Extra capacity when you need it

Bring us in for holiday cover, overflow audit work, project support, or when a deadline is tight. We provide subcontract and associate health and safety support on a one-off or repeat basis, so you can take on more without employing another full-time consultant.

02

Client sites you cannot attend

If a client site falls outside your normal travel area, or diary clashes get in the way, we can attend on your behalf and carry out the site work to your standards.

03

Reliable audits and reporting

We deliver competent, evidence-based site audits and professional reports that are ready for onward issue to your clients.

04

Cover across the Midlands and UK
