Health and Safety Specialist
Location: Rugby
This is a genuinely interesting time to join the site. The business is entering a significant period of investment and expansion, including a factory extension to increase steam turbine manufacturing capability.
Rugby is a major engineering and manufacturing site, producing and servicing generators and steam turbines for critical civil nuclear and naval applications.
We’re looking for someone who is comfortable working in a large, complex industrial environment and who can combine strong day-to-day EHS knowledge with the confidence to support major change and expansion activity.
The role
You’ll work closely with site leadership, Engineering, Operations and project teams to support and drive EHS standards across the Rugby operation.
- Supporting EHS activity across heavy engineering and manufacturing operations
- Playing a key role in a major factory expansion and CAPEX programme
- Supporting construction activity, contractor management and CDM compliance
- Reviewing and developing risk assessments, safe systems of work and operational controls
- Driving PUWER compliance, machinery safety and safeguarding standards
- Supporting incident investigations, root cause analysis and corrective actions
- Monitoring EHS performance and contributing to continuous improvement against ISO 45001 and ISO 14001
- Supporting environmental compliance across waste, emissions, water and environmental risk
- Working with teams across the site to strengthen safety culture, ownership and engagement
- Supporting audits, inspections and interaction with regulators and external stakeholders
- Contributing to site security, emergency preparedness and business continuity arrangements
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who we’re looking for
- A NEBOSH qualification
- At least 5 years’ EHS experience
- Experience within heavy engineering, complex manufacturing or a similarly high-risk industrial environment
- Strong working knowledge of UK health and safety legislation
- Practical experience of risk assessment, PUWER and operational safety
- The confidence to work with and influence stakeholders at all levels
- A hands-on approach and the ability to build strong relationships across a busy manufacturing site
Backgrounds in automotive, aerospace, power generation, heavy engineering and advanced manufacturing would all be highly relevant.
This is unlikely to suit someone whose experience has been primarily within food production or a light manufacturing environment. The complexity, machinery and risk profile of the Rugby operation are key to the role.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience of CAPEX projects, factory expansion, CDM, construction safety or contractor management would be particularly valuable.
Security requirements
The site supports UK Defence customers and naval applications, so security eligibility is a critical requirement.
Applicants must be eligible to obtain SC clearance and the required NNPPI access. A UK passport is required, and dual nationals may be considered where the second nationality is accepted by the relevant vetting authority.
