Acorn Safety Services
New recruit at growing health and safety consultancy
A thriving Northamptonshire health and safety consultancy continues to grow, with the appointment of a new senior fi re risk assessor and the launch of a dedicated recruitment drive. Acorn Safety Services, which provides health and safety
services to businesses, charities and organisations across the UK, has welcomed Lorna Smith to the team. Lorna is the fi fth new member of staff in as many months. T e
company has recently moved to a larger offi ce in Moulton Park after more than doubling its headcount in the last year. “I’m enjoying the wide variety of clients that we have and the
diverse types of building that we are fi re risk assessing,” said Lorna, who previously worked as a Health and Safety consultant for a large insurance company and is getting great satisfaction from the new role. “So far, the fi re risk assessments have included a renovated 17th
Century glass factory which is now a residential facility, care facilities for brain injured patients and a fast-food outlet in an airport.” A summer staff party in Lorna’s fi rst month at Acorn Safety
Services has helped her to get to the know the team. She added: “Most of us pretty much live out on the road so it’s
diffi cult to actually meet colleagues instead of just talking on the phone, so the party was nice to put faces to names. “We are incredibly busy at the moment, so it been a case of jump right in and pick up the job running.”

Acorn Safety Services operations director Zeynep Guzelkasap
said: “Lorna is already proving to be a great addition to the team, and we look forward to working with her and seeing her progress within the fold. “T e summer is a notoriously busy time for us, so it has been
brilliant to have Lorna on board to help. She has hit the ground running, getting to know colleagues at our recent party and providing our fi rst-class service to customers. “We have grown organically and quickly over the past year. T e
appointments we have made have been strategically planned for our continued growth in order to best serve our valued clients.” T e expansion and development of Acorn Safety Services has led
to a dedicated recruitment drive in the last three months, creating even more jobs in Northamptonshire. As well as the 10 new members of staff appointed in the last
year and the promotion of Zeynep from operations manager to operations director, the team has recently appointed a new operations coordinator and a new health and safety manager, as well as two legionella experts. Zeynep has just hired two further new staff members - a fi re
risk assessor and a CDM consultant - and is currently looking to fi ll another legionella risk assessor role in the south. When the vacancies are fi lled, the new appointments will take the growing team to 18 staff .
