Job description

H&S Manager

Location: Middlesbrough

Salary: £50,000-£55,000 + package

Job Type: Permanent

We are recruiting for an experienced H&S Manager to join an established construction business based in Middlesbrough.

Working directly under the Regional H&S Manager, this is a hands-on, site-focused position supporting the delivery of a varied portfolio of construction projects across the North East.

Projects are largely focused on commercial and residential construction, although the business delivers a broader range of schemes, providing a varied workload for an experienced construction H&S professional.

The Role

The H&S Manager will work closely with project and site teams, providing practical health and safety support throughout the construction process.

Key Responsibilities

• Carry out regular site visits, inspections and audits
• Provide day-to-day H&S support to site and project teams
• Review RAMS, construction phase plans and associated documentation
• Monitor compliance with company H&S procedures and legislation
• Identify potential risks and recommend appropriate control measures
• Assist with incident investigations and follow-up actions
• Provide practical advice and guidance to site management
• Support project teams in maintaining high standards of site safety
• Assist with H&S reporting and monitoring
• Contribute to improving H&S procedures and standards across the business
• Work closely with the Regional H&S Manager on regional H&S initiatives
• Maintain strong relationships with site teams, subcontractors and project management

About You

We're looking for an experienced construction H&S professional who is comfortable working directly with site teams and visiting live construction projects.

You will ideally have experience across commercial, residential or general construction, with a practical understanding of construction site risks, RAMS, inspections and compliance.

A recognised H&S qualification such as NEBOSH Construction is expected, together with relevant construction experience. IOSH membership or equivalent would be advantageous.

This role would suit an H&S Advisor or H&S Manager looking to take the next step within an established construction business, with direct support and progression under the Regional H&S Manager.
