About The Role

We’re looking for a passionate and forward-thinking QHSE Manager to join our team covering the Mid & North Region. This is a mobile, high-impact role where you’ll help shape and deliver our QHSE strategy, ensuring we operate safely, sustainably, and to the highest quality standards.

As part of our QHSE team, you’ll be at the heart of driving a safety-first culture, supporting our teams and clients through expert advice, structured audits, and continuous improvement. You’ll:

• Lead on developing and embedding QHSE policies and procedures across the business.
• Carry out site visits, risk assessments, COSHH assessments, audits, and investigations to raise our safety and quality standards.
• Champion ISO accreditation and compliance across multiple standards (9001, 14001, 45001, 27001).
• Deliver training and guidance to help operational teams work safely and effectively.
• Manage sustainability initiatives that align with business and regulatory goals.
• Support, coach, and lead our QHSE Coordinators to deliver outstanding service to the business.
• Monitor incidents, investigate thoroughly, and ensure lessons learned are shared widely to prevent recurrence.
• Build strong relationships with operational leaders, clients, and external bodies to continuously raise the bar.

No two days are the same. You’ll be hands-on in the field one day and working on strategic QHSE improvements the next—helping to keep our people safe, our service exceptional, and our business future-ready.

About You

You’re a natural leader and problem solver who thrives in a fast-paced, multi-site environment. You’re passionate about quality, safety, and sustainability, and you know how to influence people at every level to bring about real change.

You will bring:

• A NEBOSH General Certificate and ideally working towards or holding a NEBOSH Diploma.
• Solid knowledge of ISO standards and hands-on auditing experience.
• A track record of leading safety culture improvements and embedding best practice across multiple locations.
• Confidence dealing with regulatory bodies, clients, and senior stakeholders.
• Excellent communication skills—you can deliver a clear message, influence decisions, and build trust.
• Financial awareness and the ability to link QHSE strategy to commercial objectives.
• Strong IT skills, especially Microsoft Office.
• A full UK driving licence and the flexibility to travel extensively.

Most importantly, you share our Atlas values, treating colleagues like family, being honest always, and constantly looking for ways to make things better. You don’t just keep up with change, you drive it.
