Job Description
Group Health & Safety Manager
£65,000–£80,000 + £5,000 Allowance + Package
Based in Barnet | Multi-Sector Main Contractor | Future Director-Level Role
The Company
Our client is a successful, fast-growing main contractor delivering a diverse portfolio of work across the residential, education, commercial, and social housing sectors. Projects typically range from high-volume measured term contracts, planned maintenance, and roofing schemes, through to complex refurbishments, traditional builds, and specialist fit-out work.
Operating across London, the South East and the West of England, the business is known for its delivery-first attitude, strong supply chain relationships, and loyal client base, with consistent repeat work forming the backbone of the operation.
With a strong operational foundation in place, the company is now looking to evolve its Health & Safety function to match its wider strategic ambitions — and is hiring a Group Health & Safety Manager to lead that journey.
The Role
This is a high-impact, strategic role. You’ll work directly with the Managing Director to design and implement a customised, digitised H&S system that reflects how the business truly operates — moving away from generic, box-ticking compliance and towards a more integrated, proactive safety culture.
The role covers all projects and divisions, with a current H&S Advisor reporting into you, and scope to build out a full H&S team as the business continues to scale. With direct access to senior leadership, this is a rare chance to build a modern, fit-for-purpose safety function from scratch — and progress into a Director-level position over time.
Key Responsibilities for the Group Health & Safety Manager:
Lead the creation and roll-out of a group-wide digital H&S platform
Oversee day-to-day H&S activity across a wide range of live sites and project types
Act as strategic partner to the MD and senior leadership team
Line manage the H&S Advisor and develop a scalable team structure beneath you
Drive site compliance, risk mitigation, training, reporting and continuous improvement
Conduct audits, inspections, and develop behavioural safety initiatives
Serve as the primary point of contact for all internal and external H&S matters What We’re Looking For:
Strong track record in H&S management within a main contracting environment
Experience across a mix of sectors (residential, education, social housing, maintenance)
Forward-thinking mindset – tech-savvy, systems-driven, and culturally aware
Gravitas to operate at senior level, with the confidence to challenge and lead change
NEBOSH Diploma (or equivalent) essential
GradIOSH or CMIOSH preferred
Based within commuting distance to Barnet What’s On Offer:
£65,000–£80,000 base salary
£5,000 travel allowance
Company pension + package
Direct route to H&S Director as the business scales
Full ownership of a group-wide strategy, backed by an ambitious leadership team Apply Now
