Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom Zest Food Jobs Full time

Every great business has one thing in common — people who care.

People who believe that everyone deserves to go home safely at the end of each day. People who understand that protecting the planet isn't just policy — it's purpose.

If that sounds like you, this could be your next big step.

Our client, a respected name in the food manufacturing industry, is looking for a Safety, Health and Environment Manager to lead from the front. This is more than a compliance role — it's about culture, engagement and influence. You'll be the heartbeat of a site that's proud of its people, its products, and its commitment to doing things the right way.

The Story You'll Step Into

You'll be joining a high-performing site with a clear vision: to make safety second nature and sustainability a shared passion.

Your mission?

To inspire, guide and champion best practice — not just by writing policies, but by bringing them to life. You'll work shoulder to shoulder with teams across production, engineering and operations, embedding a proactive safety culture and driving forward environmental progress.

This is a role where your ideas are heard, your expertise is valued, and your leadership will shape the future.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Leading all Safety, Health and Environmental initiatives — from strategy to shop floor.
  • Monitoring, evaluating and reviewing legislation to ensure full compliance.
  • Investigating incidents, identifying improvements, and implementing preventative actions.
  • Championing sustainability — driving waste reduction, energy efficiency and environmental innovation.
  • Building relationships with local and national regulatory bodies.
  • Reporting SHE performance, identifying trends, and celebrating wins with the team.
  • Coaching, training and developing others to create a strong pipeline of safety leaders.

About You

You might be an experienced H&S Officer or Advisor ready for your next challenge — or perhaps you're already managing a team and want to join a business where your impact will truly be felt.

You'll need:

  • NEBOSH Certificate (Diploma a plus) or equivalent.
  • A solid background in SHE management, ideally within food or FMCG.
  • A proactive, engaging leadership style — someone who connects with everyone from shop floor to senior leadership.
  • A genuine passion for safety, sustainability, and continuous improvement.

Why This Role?

Because here,
progression isn't just promised — it's planned.

You'll be joining a company that believes in
growing its own
talent. You'll have the autonomy to make real changes and the support to keep developing your career, with access to structured training, mentorship and long-term succession opportunities.

You'll also find a workplace that values collaboration, innovation and balance — a team that works hard but still finds time for a smile and a shared sense of purpose.

If you're ready to step up and make a lasting difference — for people, for safety, and for the planet — we'd love to hear your story.
