Do you feel your management ignore how the work force feel when Health and Safety is seen as just a necessary evil?
Are you capable of making safe operations a productivity boost?

Have you continued your professional development from NEBOSH Certificate and beyond?
Can you explain the difference between a lagging indicator and leading indicator and which is most important to cultural shift?
And can you implement them and make them work?
Can you work with a manager who has high expectations of you to create a culture of H&S behaviour (not rule adherence) as the norm? – really think about that one before you apply!

Could you take responsibility for ISO 14001 too?
Do you want to lead our shift towards becoming a leading ESG organisation?
Have you experience of auditing for ISO 18001 or better still ISO 45001, ideally ISO 9001 or 16949, and ISO 14001? Yes that’s a lot and they are an ideal, but the OHSAS are the must haves.
