The postholder will set direction and priorities for the auditor team while remaining visible alongside auditors, field teams and delivery partners. They must help teams work safely, efficiently and to the required standard. Success will be judged by consistent assurance, improved right-first-time quality and fewer repeat incidents, defects and avoidable rework, not by audit or paperwork volume. Legal compliance, critical controls and material quality standards remain non-negotiable. Our continued growth depends on completing work safely, efficiently and to a consistently high standard. The HSEQ Manager will lead Grain's field assurance team and be an important operational partner, helping protect people and the environment, improve right-first-time quality and maintain strong governance without introducing unnecessary barriers to delivery. Main responsibilities Work with the Executive Team and operational leadership to maintain Grain's HSEQ strategy and management system, with clear ownership and balanced performance measures. Own, prepare and present the Monthly HSEQ Board Report, covering Grain and contractor accidents, near misses, utility strikes and vehicle incidents; monthly and year-to-date trends; investigations and corrective actions; audit, quality, environmental and contractor performance; material risks, recommendations and decisions or support required from the Board.

Maintain a visible presence alongside auditors, field teams and contractors. Understand how work is planned and delivered before changing controls or processes, provide practical solutions and distinguish serious HSEQ failures from minor administrative issues that should not delay delivery. Intervene promptly where required, while avoiding unnecessary work stoppages where safety and quality risks can be effectively controlled through practical and proportionate measures. Set, communicate and assure clear workmanship and quality standards for fibre civils, ducts, chambers, cabinets, reinstatement, network and customer installations, maintenance, as-built records and handover information. Analyse accidents, incidents, near misses, environmental events, repeat defects, rework and customer-impacting failures; lead root-cause investigations, share lessons and ensure proportionate preventative and corrective actions are clearly owned and completed. Lead and support suitable risk assessments, method statements and safe systems of work, ensuring UK health and safety law, RIDDOR, CDM duties and practical environmental controls are understood and met. Set HSEQ expectations for contractors and subcontractors, support competence assessment, monitor field performance and address repeated or serious non-compliance firmly, fairly and consistently without creating unnecessary barriers to delivery. Identify training and competence requirements for the auditor team and wider business, and support practical inductions, toolbox talks, briefings and management training that improve behaviour, workmanship and operational decision-making. Working hours This is a full-time role that can be based at Grain's Carlisle Head Office or home-based within England. Regular travel across Grain's operational areas and periodic attendance at the Carlisle Head Office will be required. The successful candidate will manage a geographically dispersed team remotely, but must spend a meaningful proportion of their time with HSEQ Auditors and operational teams in the field.

Strong working knowledge of UK health and safety legislation and a sound understanding of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations. Experience of site inspections, audits, incident and root-cause investigations, RAMS, safe systems of work, contractor assurance and corrective action management. Evidence of improving workmanship or operational quality, reducing defects and rework, and strengthening right-first-time delivery. A practical understanding of environmental management and quality assurance; experience with ISO 45001, ISO 9001 and/or ISO 14001 is desirable. An excellent communicator and strong influencer, credible with field teams, auditors, contractors, managers and executives, with the ability to coach and challenge constructively. Strong analytical and report-writing skills, with the ability to turn HSEQ data and field findings into concise Board-level trends, risks, recommendations and decisions. Pragmatic, commercially aware and resilient, with the judgement to prioritise significant risk, legal obligations and material quality failures without creating unnecessary delay.

SRT Marine Systems plc (SRT) are a market leader in its domain of international marine surveillance technology and systems. We are respected, established and an ambitious multi-national company headquartered in the UK with a global customer base. The company has a global impact in the marine domain by leading the next generation of Maritime Domain Awareness 'MDA' technologies, products and systems that significantly enhance, security, safety and environment protection and sustainability. Our customers are worldwide and range from the largest national coast guards to individual vessel owners. SRT is an exciting company where high quality results are rewarded. We are ambitious and are constantly seeking to innovate to deliver better products and services to our customers. We strive to make SRT a rewarding and challenging place to work where talented hard-working individuals have the opportunity to make a real impact across the marine world. We are looking for a Security & Compliance Manager to own the security of how our products and systems are deployed, operated and maintained in customer environments around the world, and to lead the security assurance and certification activity that stands behind them. This is a senior, customer-facing leadership role sitting at the intersection of secure delivery, customer operations and corporate security. You as a Security & Compliance Manager will work closely with our delivery, customer-facing, network & infrastructure and corporate IT teams, and with our external security partners, to make sure the systems we deploy remain secure throughout their operational life. The role is focused on leadership, coordination and communication rather than hands-on engineering. Much of the knowledge needed already exists across the business - your job is to bring it together into a coherent programme, and to be the champion who drives it through, backed by enough technical understanding to hold detailed conversations with customers, auditors and developers. The role of Security & Compliance Manager is primarily based from our Bristol office, but you must be willing to travel to our offices in Cardiff and Bath on occasion, and from time to time to customer sites worldwide, with good flexibility for Hybrid working. Responsibilities - Security & Compliance Manager - not exhaustive: Act as the senior voice and champion for security across our delivery and customer operations, ensuring deployed systems receive the same security attention as new ones. Define the customer operating policies, principles and patterns that delivery and customer-facing teams should follow for the secure implementation and operation of SRT systems. Own the through-life security of equipment deployed in customer environments, including patching, secure configuration, and equipment lifecycle and end-of-life replacement. Lead SRT's responses to customer security requirements, assurance questionnaires and connection approvals, including for sophisticated government and defence customers. Work with internal stakeholders to ensure engineering and operational reality supports the security claims we make to customers, partners and auditors. Lead our assurance and certification activity, including Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001 and other relevant standards. Bring together the security expertise that already exists across the business into one coherent, prioritised programme of improvement. Direct our external security partners as an extended resource pool for monitoring, assessments and remediation.
