• Act as a key point of contact for health and safety across Warehousing, Transport, and Central Support, working closely with hub managers and other Regional H&S Managers to ensure a consistent approach.
• Monitor safety metrics and use data to drive decision‑making, improve processes, and act on feedback to enhance team performance.
• Continuously develop your knowledge and skills to stay aligned with business priorities, minimising downtime and associated costs.

• Analytical mindset with strong problem‑solving capabilities, comfortable managing multiple priorities within a small team.
• Resilient and adaptable, with a focus on delivering results.
• NEBOSH General Certificate (or equivalent) and Technical Member of IOSH; DGSA qualification desirable.
• Familiarity with safety auditing and certification systems (e.g., iAuditor, RoSPA) and knowledge of safety culture management tools is advantageous.
