About Us

The people your team
will actually work with

Vero Safety Solutions is a boutique HSE consultancy founded on the conviction that lasting safety improvement comes from people, not paperwork. We bring decades of frontline experience directly to your workforce: no junior associates, no one-size-fits-all frameworks.

Our Story

Built on the belief that compliance alone doesn't save lives

Most organisations have procedures in place. What they often lack is a workforce that genuinely understands them, trusts them, and applies them under pressure. Vero was founded to close that gap: combining rigorous technical expertise with the human-centred approach that actually changes behaviour.

We have operated across aviation, oil & gas, construction, maritime, and government advisory: on projects spanning five continents. Every engagement is led personally by Peter or Marielou. That's not a selling point; it's how we believe this work should be done.

Peter McNair

Chartered Fellow of the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health: the highest professional grade in the field.

Peter brings more than five decades of frontline HSE experience to every engagement: spanning a 30-year Royal Air Force career progressing to Chief Technician in fast jet operations, and over 26 years in senior HSE consulting across aviation, oil & gas, construction, government, and education. He holds a Bachelor's degree in Aerospace Engineering and has lectured at the University of Nottingham at degree and diploma level.

He is a recipient of the IOSH President's Distinguished Service Certificate and holds four honours in Her Majesty The Queen's New Year Honours List.

How We Work

Principles we don't compromise on

Practical over theoretical

Every recommendation we make can be implemented by the people who will actually carry it out. We do not produce reports that sit on shelves.

Senior-led delivery

Peter or Marielou leads every engagement. Clients are never passed to junior consultants once the contract is signed. The person you brief is the person who delivers.

Risk-proportionate solutions

We apply ALARP thinking to everything: ensuring controls are proportionate to the risk, not driven by over-caution or under-investment. The goal is the right level of safety, not the maximum level.

Capability over dependency

We build your team's capacity to manage safety independently. Our measure of success is that you need us less over time: not more.

Work that went beyond the consultancy brief
