• Carrying out regular site inspections, audits and compliance reviews against NG Bailey and client standards.
• Getting involved in incident and near-miss investigations, digging into root causes and helping put effective fixes in place.
• Representing health and safety at operational meetings, client forums and safety briefings.
• Stepping up to cover the Contract Manager during periods of leave, as the recognised second-in-command on the contract.

What we're looking for:

An engaging, safety-focused professional who's comfortable being the go-to person on site and enjoys building relationships with clients and teams alike. You'll bring:

• A NEBOSH General Certificate (or equivalent Level 3 health and safety qualification).
• Solid working knowledge of UK health and safety legislation and industry best practice.
• Experience gained within Facilities Management, Building Services or M&E maintenance.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to influence at all levels.
• The drive to work independently while building effective relationships across operational teams.

Benefits:

We're always evolving our benefits to ensure we're attracting and retaining great people. Some of what you can expect includes:

• 25 Days Holiday + Bank Holidays with an option to Buy/Sell additional days
• Pension with a leading provider and up to 8% employer contribution
• Personal Wellbeing and Volunteer Days
• Private Medical Insurance
• Life Assurance
