Are you a Health & Safety Manager from a Logistics or Warehousing background looking to take ownership of a newly created team where you'll shape strategy, influence senior stakeholders, and build a high-performing H&S function across a regional patch?

This leading group of companies has a broad presence across numerous sectors including Industrial, Logistics and Shipping with over 150 years of experience and operations across multiple continents. This role falls within the Logistics subsidiary of the wider group, and has arisen due to an ever-increasing workload, meaning creation of a new department in the South East.
