Let's be honest. A job in Health & Safety isn’t everyone’s cup of tea.
But you’re not everyone.
You’re the type who sees an accident waiting to happen before it even crosses anyone else's mind. You know that the difference between a near miss and a serious incident can be the right risk assessment or a well-timed conversation. You’re not just about ticking boxes and filling out forms. You’re about building a culture where people genuinely care about safety – and act like it.
The Gig
We need someone to support the Health & Safety Manager keep the site in line with the latest legislation and best practices. This isn’t about standing on a soapbox and barking orders – it’s about collaborating with teams, making sure they get it, and most importantly, driving a positive safety culture.
Here’s what you’ll be doing:
- Auditing and inspections. Regularly. If there's a risk, you’ll find it.
- Risk assessments. Fire, manual handling, COSHH, noise – you’ll ensure these are all up to date and relevant.
- Contractor management. From permits to PPE, you’ll be the go-to person ensuring every contractor on-site knows the rules.
- Accident investigations. A thorough approach to every accident and near miss – all properly documented and actionable.
- Training and awareness. Not just ticking the box – delivering training that actually changes behaviors.
- Continual improvement. ISO45001 isn’t just a badge – it’s something you’ll help us live and breathe. You’ll have a big hand in external audits too.
Background?
You’ve got the experience, sure. But more importantly, you’ve got the mindset. You’re the person who can walk onto a site and see a dozen things that need fixing before you’ve even taken off your coat. You get that Health & Safety is more about people than paperwork.
So, if you have a background as a H&S Officer, H&S Advisor or H&S Coordinator in the Food Manufacturing industry then apply below and lets have a confidential conversation.
