Default match a word in a cell and copy anoher cell in the same row

Hi - sorry another question from me today!

Is there a formula or way to achieve the following please

I want to search through a column (say column B) containing both words and
numbers to see if any cell in that column contains a specific word if it does
I want the corresponding cell in column A (same row) to copy into a thirds
column.

Hope this makes sense

Thanks

Lise
