SHE Manager

The Opportunity

• Produce reports, monitor SHE KPIs and communicate lessons learned across the business.
• Advise management teams on specialist SHE matters including work at height, occupational health, hazardous substances, fire safety and environmental compliance.
• Support and maintain ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems.
• Build strong relationships with operational teams and act as a trusted advisor on all SHE matters.

Requirements

• NEBOSH General Certificate or NEBOSH Construction Certificate.
• Tech IOSH membership or working towards professional membership.
• Previous SHE experience within substations, power transmission & distribution, utilities or HV/LV electrical environments.
• Strong understanding of construction site safety and CDM principles.

• Knowledge of ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 management systems.
• Excellent understanding of UK health, safety and environmental legislation.
