Ready to Take Safety Leadership to the Next Level?
 
Join a highly respected engineering business known for its cutting-edge manufacturing, industry-leading safety standards, and truly exceptional workplace culture.
This is not just another Health and Safety role — it's an opportunity to make a lasting impact at a company with low staff turnover, a collaborative environment, and a strong reputation for innovation and operational excellence. You'll be joining a team that values your expertise, supports your growth, and genuinely cares about the wellbeing of every employee.
 
Why This Role Stands Out

💼 Work in a high-tech engineering environment at the forefront of aerospace manufacturing
🤝 Collaborate with passionate teams across production, engineering, and quality
🚀 Be a key driver of continuous improvement and innovation
💡 Join a business where your voice matters and safety is a shared priority, not a checkbox
🌱 Enjoy stability, career growth, and purpose in a role where you're genuinely valued
