Key Responsibilities

• Champion Health & Safety as a core business principle across all sites.
• Design and maintain a group wide safety management framework, ensuring compliance with current and future legislation.
• Provide expert guidance to senior leadership and site managers on risk management and safe working practices.
• Lead and inspire site safety teams, ensuring consistent standards and performance across multiple locations.
• Oversee audits, inspections, and reporting processes to drive continuous improvement.
• Support group projects with safety input, including training, risk assessments, and change programmes.
• Act as the organisation’s primary liaison with external agencies and industry bodies.

About You

• Significant Health & Safety leadership experience within food, FMCG, or manufacturing.
• Proven ability to manage across multiple sites and deliver strategic change.
• Strong communicator with excellent influencing and presentation skills.
• NEBOSH Diploma/Certificate and IOSH membership (or equivalent).
• Degree in Health & Safety or equivalent experience.
• First Aid certificate and full UK driving licence.
• A proactive leader with attention to detail, resilience, and the ability to inspire teams.

The Package

• Salary up to £90,000 (dependent on experience).
• Car allowance.
• Pension scheme.
• Private medical cover.
• 25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays, with option to buy up to 5 additional days.
• Death in service benefit.
• Membership to employee benefits scheme.
• Free parking.
• Access to ongoing learning & development.

Why This Role?

This is a senior opportunity to lead Health & Safety across a multi-site food manufacturing group, driving operational excellence and embedding a strong safety culture. You’ll have the autonomy to shape the Group’s approach, influence at board level, and make a lasting impact across diverse sites in the UK and Northern Ireland.
