Training and awareness constitute an essential part of your responsibilities, requiring you to continuously raise awareness about the importance of H&S across all levels of the organisation. Ensuring the training, coaching and development of site managers.

Additionally, you will maintain relations with relevant public authorities and manage external interactions during H&S-related inspections and visits. Your role includes assisting with legal reporting requirements, such as accident notifications and claims management, and ensuring compliance with all H&S-related licensing, notifications, and reporting, maintaining relevant documentation.

Finally, your contributions will extend to reporting regularly on H&S Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), corrective, and preventive actions, and aiding in the implementation of group Wellbeing initiatives within the region. You will also aid the regional governance structure for the Wellbeing program, in accordance with Group standards, ensuring a comprehensive approach to health and safety that fosters a safe and healthy work environment for all employees.
