We’re currently seeking an experienced HSEQ Team Lead to join our Welshpool‑based team and take ownership of our Health, Safety, Environment and Quality systems across the business.

This is a hands‑on, versatile leadership role, where you’ll lead a small team of four and work collaboratively with all departments to ensure our operations maintain the highest standards — including our ISO 45001 accreditation.

• Lead, coordinate and support a team of four HSEQ professionals
• Maintain and continuously improve the Brooks Group’s HSEQ systems and procedures
• Champion our ISO management systems and support certification processes
• Conduct and oversee internal audits and assist with external audits
• Provide expert advice, guidance and training on HSEQ matters
• Manage incident investigations, corrective actions, and root cause analyses
• Monitor compliance across 29 branches nationally, ensuring consistent standards
• Oversee contractor management processes and site inspections
• Maintain accurate HSEQ records and reporting for employees and assets

About You

• Certificate IV in OHS (minimum) – Diploma preferred
• Internal auditor training (highly regarded)
• Demonstrated experience in an HSEQ role within a civil, mining, or mobile plant environment
• Strong knowledge of workplace safety legislation and ISO management systems
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
• Strong attention to detail and a proactive, solutions‑focused mindset
