Are you a Health and Safety Manager looking for a wider range of experience in a complex but very rewarding environment?

The St Mungo’s Safety and Quality team are committed to maintaining high levels of health and safety (H&S) standards, ensuring the organisation meets its legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations while fostering a culture of safety and wellbeing for all stakeholders.

We are now looking for someone to join us as Health and Safety Manager, where you will play a crucial role in ensuring the organisation meets its legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations while fostering a culture of safety and wellbeing for all stakeholders. Key responsibilities will include:

• Facilitate engagement with health and safety activities across the organisation through various channels such as briefings, presentations, and training sessions.
• Provide line management, support and supervision to a small H&S team.

In this role you will be required to work flexibly for at least 2 days per week from our Central Office in Tower Hill, London. This allows for in person collaboration, team building, and other relationship building opportunities. We support a flexible approach to work with opportunities for agile working for the rest of your week; from home, or other St Mungo’s London or regional locations.
