  • Proven experience managing health & safety in a wholesale, retail, or multi‑site environment.
  • Track record of managing systems to OHSAS 18001 standards (or equivalent).
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence and build relationships at all levels.
  • Strong planning, organisation, and interpersonal skills with high attention to detail.
  • Ability to work independently, make key decisions, and balance workload effectively.
  • Integrity, confidentiality, and a pragmatic approach to risk management.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Visio.

Desirable:

  • Membership of IOSH (Institute of Occupational Safety and Health).


What you'll get

  • £55,000 - £60,000 and benefits package.
  • Hybrid working with flexibility across office and site locations.
  • Professional development opportunities and support for further qualifications.
  • A collaborative, people‑focused culture where safety and wellbeing are prioritised.
