About Cathie
Cathie is a global offshore engineering consultancy, delivering geoscience, geotechnical and geospatial solutions to offshore renewable energy and infrastructure projects, with teams across the UK, Europe and the US.
We combine technical excellence with a collaborative and pragmatic approach, helping clients deliver some of the world's most ambitious offshore energy developments.
About the Position
This is a key role responsible for leading the day-to-day coordination and continual improvement of Cathie's Quality, Health, Safety and Environmental activities across our international business. Reporting to the Group QHSE Manager, you'll work with colleagues across the UK, France, Belgium and Italy to ensure compliance, drive continuous improvement and promote a positive safety culture.
While the role includes responsibility for management systems, audits and compliance activities, it is also a hands-on operational position. You'll be actively involved in supporting office-based health and safety, hybrid and remote working arrangements, mandatory training programmes, risk assessments, incident management and employee wellbeing initiatives across multiple jurisdictions.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to take ownership of a broad QHSE remit within an established international engineering consultancy.
This Role Could Suit Someone Who...
- Enjoys balancing operational improvement with practical day-to-day delivery
- Likes working with people and influencing positive behaviours
- Takes a pragmatic approach to health, safety and compliance
- Is confident building relationships with employees, managers and leadership teams
- Enjoys working across multiple countries, cultures and business functions
- Wants to play a visible role in strengthening safety culture across an international organisation
