Location : UK-based, Remote working, 3-4 days per week (with travel to sites across the UK and possibly internationally)

We're seeking an experienced and forward-thinking professional to lead the Group’s Health & Safety function across all UK-based entities. This is a key leadership role with responsibility for shaping and delivering a cohesive H&S strategy that goes beyond compliance — promoting a strong, proactive safety culture throughout the organization.

With a focus on employee wellbeing and operational resilience, you’ll have the scope and support to make a lasting impact across a dynamic and varied business landscape.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and implement the Group-wide Health & Safety strategy in line with current UK legislation (e.g. Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, CDM Regulations) and ISO standards (e.g. ISO 45001).
• Ensure H&S systems, policies, and procedures are current, consistent, and effectively implemented across all business units.
• Provide subject matter expertise and guidance to entity-level teams and senior management on legal obligations, incident management, and risk reduction.
• Conduct audits, inspections, and gap analyses to identify non-compliance, risks, and improvement opportunities.
• Oversee and support incident investigations, ensuring root cause analysis is completed and effective corrective actions are implemented.
• Lead or support HSE training initiatives to ensure competence across all levels of the organization.
• Collaborate with HR, Operations, Facilities, and Engineering on workplace design, ergonomics, and safe systems of work.
• Engage with external stakeholders including regulatory bodies (e.g. HSE, Local Authorities), insurers, and accreditation bodies.
• Track and assess emerging legislation, standards, and industry developments to future-proof the Group’s H&S policies and practices.
• Promote employee engagement and safety culture through communication, campaigns, and recognition programs
