Are you passionate about making workplaces safer and more sustainable? Want to make a real difference in a role that impacts thousands of colleagues, customers and communities every day. At Stagecoach, we’re more than just a transport company. We’re a vital part of daily life in the UK.
We’re looking for a Health & Safety Business Officer to join our Manchester team and help lead our safety journey into the future. This is a fantastic opportunity to shape how we embed a culture of safety, compliance, and continuous improvement across our depots, all while supporting our vision of Driving Net Zero.
What will you be doing?
As our Health & Safety Business Officer, you’ll be the go‑to expert for all things safety across our Manchester depots. Working closely with the Engineering Director and Health & Safety Manager, you will:
* Lead safety initiatives and ensure Group H&S policies are consistently applied across depots
* Carry out safety audits and follow up on actions, legislation updates, and policy changes
* Support depots in achieving ISO45001 certification by 2025
* Collaborate with Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) on safety improvement programmes
* Attend forums and committees to share knowledge and best practices with other operators
* Deliver in-house safety training and support the delivery of our 5‑Year Safety Plan
* Investigate incidents and develop Safety Alerts to improve awareness and prevent reoccurrence
* Monitor depot KPIs and identify opportunities for safety improvement
* Be a visible presence across our operations, engaging with local teams to champion safe working practices
What do you need to apply?
* A NEBOSH General Certificate (minimum)
* Strong knowledge of UK safety legislation and auditing practices
* Experience in a fast‑paced, customer‑focused environment (ideally transport or similar)
* A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel between depots
* Excellent communication, influencing and stakeholder management skills
* Strong planning, problem‑solving and organisational abilities
* Confident use of Microsoft Office tools (Word, Excel, etc.)
* Familiarity with ISO45001 and/or sustainability frameworks (desirable, not essential!)
Why choose Stagecoach?
* Free bus and tram travel for you and a companion
* 25 days holiday + bank holidays
* Employee discounts on shopping, cinema, travel and more
* Supportive Employee Assistance Programme for your wellbeing
* A collaborative, inclusive working environment
