UAL is a world-renowned institution for arts, design, fashion, communication, and the performing arts. We have partnered with Loughborough Business School to offer a unique opportunity for an ambitious Head of Health and Safety to join us as a Senior Leader Apprentice, where you will learn the skills needed to excel in the role, while earning a competitive salary and having access to UAL networks, expertise, and staff benefits.

  • Monitor and improve Health and Safety performance through rigorous investigation of incidents, facilitating operational improvement plans, and ensuring continuous development of safety protocols.

This role is an apprenticeship, so as part of the job, we will also support you to study and complete a postgraduate diploma in Strategic Leadership.
