The Role

This position is an exciting opportunity to join EDF Heat Pumps (formerly CB Heating), which is a well-established SME that has recently been acquired by EDF, providing investment and growth opportunities on a wider scale. The role is based in Clacton-On-Sea but we offer hybrid working.

They will support the development and delivery of our strategy for systems, culture, and assurance to reach ZERO HARM by championing relevant action plans, interventions, and campaigns to achieve continual improvement in our HS&E performance. They will also develop appropriate HS&E policies and procedures to ensure compliance with all HS&E legislation, regulations and EDF obligations.

The post holder will require strong leadership skills together with extensive knowledge of health, safety & environmental legislation & management of risk, including Construction, Design and Management Regulations (CDM 2015). They will need to demonstrate experience of developing, reviewing, and monitoring HS&E management systems and procedures to ensure they remain effective.

You will need to be familiar with ISO 9001, 45001 and 14001 certifications including evidence of successfully leading the external surveillance and re-certification together with experience in developing & implementing HS&E risk-based strategies and action plans.

You will need the ability to work effectively as part of a management team and have experience of building effective relationships internally at all levels and with external stakeholders.

You will need to hold a NEBOSH Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety, NVQ Level 6 in Occupational Health and Safety or equivalent. Ideally, you will be a Chartered member of IOSH or working towards this.
