H&S Manager | Leading Tier 1 Contractor | Major Infrastructure Project
The Opportunity
Are you a Health & Safety professional who prefers the site walk to the boardroom?
We are recruiting for a Health & Safety Manager to join a prestigious Tier 1 Civil Engineering Contractor on a long-term, multi-million-pound infrastructure project. This role is based on-site at one of the UK's most significant global logistics hubs, working in partnership with a world-leading port operator.
This is a high-visibility, permanent role for someone who thrives in complex, fast-moving environments where no two days are the same.
The Role:
This is a "boots-on-the-ground" position. We aren't looking for a document controller; we need a leader who is happiest when they are out on-site, influencing behavior and solving problems in real-time.
Active Engagement: You will be a constant presence on-site, building rapport with operatives and subcontractors to ensure safety is woven into the fabric of the daily build.
Operational Safety: Managing risks within a high-traffic maritime and heavy construction environment.
Practical Leadership: Providing common-sense safety solutions that allow work to progress safely and efficiently.
Stakeholder Liaison: Acting as the primary H&S point of contact between the main contractor and the global port authority.
The Ideal Candidate
Proactive & Visible: You lead by example and believe that the best way to manage safety is through face-to-face interaction.
Sector Experience: A strong background in Heavy Civils, Marine, or Major Infrastructure is essential.
Qualified: NEBOSH Construction/General (Diploma preferred) and GradIOSH/CMIOSH status.
Communicator: You have the "soft skills" to challenge high-pressure situations constructively and gain buy-in from all levels of the workforce.
Why This Role?
You will be joining a renowned contractor with a massive pipeline of work and a reputation for technical excellence. This project offers the chance to add a globally recognized infrastructure landmark to your portfolio while enjoying the stability and progression of a permanent Tier 1 position.
