Full job descriptionHealth & Safety Manager – Construction / M&E Projects


London | £ + 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.
