Trinity House works for the benefit and safety of all mariners as a General Lighthouse Authority and maritime charity. As a General Lighthouse Authority we operate marine aids to navigation that are critical to the safety of ships and seafarers, providing an essential service for the prosperity of our island nation. As a self-funding maritime charity we provide education, support and welfare to the seafaring community. Our people are central to our reputation as a leading maritime organisation, as is our commitment as an employer to developing the skills, capabilities and potential of our workforce.

Qualified to chartered status in a relevant professional qualification e.g. IEMA/IOSH, you will have experience of leading professional teams, and a thorough knowledge of health, safety and environmental best practices. Previous experience of working in a highly regulated operational or marine environment is essential. More information can be found in the role profile.
