Job description

HSE Manager | £60,000–£65,000 + 20% product discount | Thatcham

Looking for your next step up in HSE leadership? This could be it.

My client is a well-established 3PL operator with a large, busy Thatcham site covering warehousing, transport, vehicle maintenance and in-house engineering. It’s the kind of environment where you’ll be seen, heard and expected to lead – not just advise.

You’ll sit within the site leadership team and own the HSE agenda end to end. That means driving a more proactive safety culture, coaching operational managers and making sure improvements actually stick on the ground.

This isn’t a desk-based compliance role. You’ll be out on the shop floor, building relationships, challenging where needed and helping people at every level take real ownership of safety. There’s also scope to get involved in group-wide peer reviews, giving you exposure beyond the site.

You’ll likely have:

• NEBOSH Certificate (minimum)
• Solid HSE experience in a fast-paced logistics, warehouse, retail or manufacturing setting
• Confidence to present to and influence senior stakeholders
• Strong communication skills and a practical, down-to-earth style
• A track record of leading investigations, driving improvements and developing others

If you’re the type of HSE professional who thrives in a visible, hands-on role and wants to make a measurable impact, this one’s worth a conversation.
