Your future role
Take on a new challenge and apply your safety and environmental expertise in a cutting-edge field. You’ll work alongside dedicated, proactive, and collaborative teammates.

You’ll play a key role in ensuring a safe and healthy environment for our people and contractors while minimizing environmental impacts and protecting Alstom’s assets. Day-to-day, you’ll work closely with teams across the business (such as operations, HR, and social partners), develop and implement safety programs, and monitor compliance with local and global standards—and much more.

You’ll specifically take care of driving the implementation of our Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) policies and initiatives at the site level, but also support the development of a strong EHS culture to ensure continuous improvement.

We’ll look to you for:

Supporting site management in achieving EHS results and deploying yearly EHS plans aligned with Alstom’s strategy

Conducting risk assessments and defining measures to control risks

Preparing, implementing, and maintaining emergency plans

Monitoring subcontractor activities to ensure compliance with EHS standards

Developing and maintaining the site’s EHS Management System and ensuring compliance with local legal requirements

Leading internal EHS audits and inspections

Driving EHS training and communication plans

Reporting and analyzing accidents/incidents to identify corrective actions

All About You
We value passion and attitude over experience. That’s why we don’t expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we’ve listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

A recognized Health & Safety qualification (as required by local authorities)

A diploma or degree in Environmental Management or a related field

2+ years of experience in Environment, Health, and Safety, ideally in manufacturing or regional centers

Knowledge of ISO
14001, OHSAS 18001, and ISO

Strong understanding of local legal requirements

Experience in the railway industry (a plus)

Excellent teamwork, leadership, and communication skills

Analytical thinking and a rigorous mindset

Proficiency in computer tools and continuous improvement methodologies

Things you’ll enjoy
Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You’ll also:

Enjoy stability, challenges, and a long-term career free from boring daily routines

Work with new security standards for rail signalling

Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues

Contribute to innovative projects

Utilise our flexible and inclusive working environment

Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries

Benefit from our investment in your development, through award‑winning learning
