This role would suit an individual with 2-3 years' Health & Safety experience, ideally gained within a high-risk engineering or manufacturing environment, who is looking to take the next step into a lead/advisory role.

It is a great opportunity for someone who has been supporting H&S activities and has hands-on experience with risk assessments, audits, and implementing safety policies, and is now ready to take on more ownership and responsibility at site level.

Previous management experience is not required, making this an ideal step-up role for a junior or early-career H&S professional looking to progress into a more autonomous position.

What You Will Do:

- Manage the Health and Safety inhouse System, ensuring compliance with statutory regulations and driving best practices across the site.

- Update the Safety Statement and carry out Risk Assessments, while supporting others in conducting their own assessments.

- Conduct audits and inspections to maintain high safety standards and identify areas for improvement.

- Deliver engaging and regular health and safety training programmes, tailored to the needs of the team.

- Collaborate with departments to ensure all processes, equipment, and changes meet health and safety requirements.

- Take charge of emergency response teams and procedures, ensuring readiness for any situation.

- Lead investigations into accidents with a focus on root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions.

- Share and benchmark safety best practices within the wider group.

What You Will Bring:

- A minimum of three years' experience in a Health and Safety role, ideally within a manufacturing environment.

- Proven ability to implement and lead Health and Safety initiatives with measurable success.

- Working knowledge of ISO 45001 Health and Safety Management systems.

- Strong understanding of HSE regulations and best practices, with the ability to influence and inspire others.

- Excellent communication skills and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.

This company is passionate about creating a sustainable future and values innovation, collaboration, and the wellbeing of its employees. By joining as a Health and Safety Lead, you will play a vital role in ensuring the safety and success of the team, while contributing to the company's mission of delivering high-quality, sustainable solutions for globally recognised brands.
