  • Lead and support national QSHE programmes, including sustainability, ESG, behavioural safety and wellbeing initiatives aligned with business and client priorities.
  • Advise regional and national management teams on health, safety, environmental and wellbeing matters, ensuring compliance and promoting best practice.
  • Support management systems, certifications and the compliance audit programme, providing assurance and identifying opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Investigate accidents, incidents and non-conformances, identifying root causes and appropriate corrective and preventative actions, including consideration of human and organisational factors.
  • Support operational teams with the development and review of risk assessments and method statements, providing practical advice, guidance and training.

  • Support the effective use of CAFM and management systems to improve the visibility and quality of QSHE, sustainability and compliance information.
  • Liaise with statutory bodies, clients and external stakeholders as required, representing Atlas professionally and providing expert QSHE support.

You’ll be comfortable working at both strategic and operational levels, supporting senior stakeholders while remaining close enough to operational delivery to understand risks and provide practical solutions.

You’ll bring experience across areas such as health & safety management, environmental compliance, management systems, auditing, incident investigation and risk management, together with the confidence to influence teams across a national business.
