What you'll do 

 

You'll design and implement a robust Health & Safety (H&S) framework to ensure compliance and assurance across the organisation. This involves maintaining and continuously improving systems and processes to meet both corporate and external audit requirements, such as ISO45001. Your work will preserve corporate memory and prepare for future audits.

You'll monitor my clients risk profile, providing clear visibility and tracking progress on mitigating actions. Collaborating closely with Corporate Risk and Internal Audit teams, you'll coordinate the delivery of outputs and actions to meet corporate expectations, keeping them on track and aligned with goals.
