Health and Safety Manager

Cobalt is working with a well-established investment management business as they look to hire a Health and Safety Manager for their commercial portfolio. Working in-house and managing the work of a coordinator to support your daily activities, you'll lead a proactive H&S provision, liaising with various heads of departments to help drive forward a positive Health and Safety culture throughout the department. This is a predominantly operational role, and will see you actioning measures to ensure our client remains fully compliant with UK Health & Safety legislation.

Our client has offices all across the UK, which will each require visiting on an annual basis - but when is entirely up to you except in cases of emergency. This is a home based role, with only one day a week required to work in an office of your choosing - giving you full flexibility over your working arrangements.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Identifying training requirements for health and safety, developing and delivering on this;
• Liaising with key stakeholders to help tweak and enhance current health and safety policies & procedures;
• Providing occupational H&S support to teams including for projects such as fit-outs and office moves from time to time;
• Overseeing the work of FM service providers from a health and safety perspective, ensuring all correct documentation is in place;
• Developing and maintaining a management system for occupational health and safety to ensure full compliance with UK legislative requirements.

Our client is looking for an established H&S manager with experience of overseeing the operational occupational health and safety across a portfolio of commercial properties, ideally in an in-house background. You'll have a NEBOSH general certificate whilst a NEBOSH Fire certificate would be viewed positively.

However equally importantly will be your communication skills: namely the ability to liaise with a range of stakeholders in order to deliver a positive proactive health and safety provision within the business.
