We’re recruiting for a well-established and growing building services contractor in the Sevenoaks area, operating across heating, electrical, mechanical and refurbishment projects.

You’ll be out on-site, working closely with operational teams and senior management, influencing safe working practices and helping to shape a strong, proactive safety culture across the business.

If you’re practical, confident, and passionate about improving standards, this is a brilliant next career move.

You’ll combine site inspections, compliance, RAMS, training, investigations and continuous improvement, while acting as a trusted point of contact for managers, employees, subcontractors and clients.

What you’ll be doing:

• Taking ownership of health and safety policies, procedures and management systems
• Carrying out regular site inspections, audits, and compliance reviews

• Ensuring compliance with UK health and safety legislation, including CDM Regulations 2015
• Investigating accidents, incidents and near misses and implementing preventative actions
• Managing health and safety accreditations, including SafeContractor
• Supporting client audits and pre-qualification questionnaires
• Identifying trends, risks and opportunities for improvement
• Helping to drive a positive, accountable and safety-focused culture across the business

About you:

You’ll ideally have experience as a Health and Safety Manager, Health and Safety Advisor or a similar senior H&S professional, ideally within construction, building services, mechanical, electrical or facilities management.

• NEBOSH National General Certificate or equivalent
• Strong knowledge of UK health and safety legislation
• Good working knowledge of CDM Regulations 2015
• Experience with RAMS, site inspections, audits and accident investigations
• Experience managing contractors and subcontractor compliance
• Confidence working with site teams, clients and senior stakeholders

A full UK diving license and willingness to travel to sites is essential.

NEBOSH Diploma and IOSH membership at TechIOSH or CertIOSH level would be advantageous.

What’s on offer:

• £55,000 per annum
• Full-time, permanent role
• Monday to Friday, 40 hours per week
• A varied mix of office and site-based work
• Genuine ownership of Health and Safety across the business
• Direct involvement with senior management and operational teams
• The opportunity to influence standards, behaviors and processes
• A role where your input can make a real difference to both safety and business performance
• The chance to join an established and growing contractor with a strong reputation in its sector
