The Role
We are recruiting for an experienced Health & Safety Manager to take the lead on Health, Safety & Environmental standards across a growing business operating within electrical, energy, solar and construction projects.
This is a varied role combining office-based responsibilities with regular site visits. You’ll work closely with Directors, Project Managers, engineers, site teams and subcontractors to ensure projects are delivered safely and compliantly.
Rather than simply policing Health & Safety, we’re looking for someone who can provide practical, commercially sensible advice, improve existing processes and help build an even stronger safety culture across the business.
You’ll have genuine scope to influence how HS&E is managed and introduce new ideas and improvements.
Key Responsibilities
Develop and continually improve the company’s HS&E strategy, policies and procedures
Carry out site inspections, audits and Health & Safety reviews
Review and support RAMS, risk assessments and safe systems of work
Advise Project Managers and site teams on practical Health & Safety solutions
Support Construction Phase Plans and CDM compliance
Monitor subcontractor and supply chain Health & Safety standards
Lead or support investigations into accidents, incidents and near misses
Deliver toolbox talks, inductions, briefings and safety communications
Identify training requirements and maintain competency records
Maintain company accreditations and compliance systems
Support the development of an ISO 45001-aligned management system
Monitor HS&E performance and recommend improvements
Keep the business updated on relevant legislation and industry best practice
About You
You’ll ideally have Health & Safety experience within construction, engineering, electrical contracting, M&E, building services, energy or renewables.
You should be confident working both on-site and with senior management and comfortable challenging unsafe practices while maintaining positive working relationships.
