Health & Safety Manager – Construction / M&E Projects
London | £60,000 + Excellent Benefits + Travel Expenses Covered
We’re working with a well-established specialist engineering business delivering complex construction and building services projects across London. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Health & Safety Manager who enjoys a practical, hands-on role with genuine autonomy and the chance to make a visible impact.
This is not a heavily corporate, policy-writing position. Instead, we’re looking for someone who can work closely with project teams, engineers, contractors, and clients to ensure health & safety standards are embedded across live project environments.
The Role
As the Health & Safety Manager, you’ll play a key role supporting multiple live construction and engineering projects, acting as the trusted H&S lead across site operations.
Responsibilities will include:
* Conducting regular site inspections and audits
* Supporting project teams with RAMS reviews and compliance
* Attending client pre-start, progress, and coordination meetings
* Ensuring CDM compliance and contractor adherence
* Investigating incidents, near misses, and implementing corrective actions
* Delivering toolbox talks and practical H&S guidance onsite
* Supporting project documentation and compliance requirements
* Working closely with operational leaders to drive continuous improvement
This is a highly autonomous role where your expertise and judgement will be trusted.
What We’re Looking For
We’d love to hear from candidates with:
* Proven Health & Safety experience within M&E
* NEBOSH qualification (General or Construction)
* Valid CSCS card
* Strong knowledge of CDM regulations
* Experience supporting live site operations and contractor management
Highly desirable backgrounds include:
* M&E / building services
* HVAC
* Fit-out / hard FM project delivery
* Engineering project environments
The Opportunity
Working Pattern
* Predominantly site-based across London projects
* Typically, 3–4 days onsite
* 1–2 days office/admin support
* Occasional travel outside London
Why Apply?
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing, specialist business where health & safety is genuinely valued operationally not treated as a box-ticking exercise.
If you’re someone who enjoys being visible onsite, influencing teams positively, and making a real difference across live projects, we’d love to speak with you
