Health, Safety & Facilities Manager

Department: People

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Cambridge, United Kingdom

Description

Are you a confident, hands-on H&S and Facilities professional who loves the satisfaction of a perfectly run site?

At Samsung Cambridge Solution Centre, we operate at the intersection of innovation and precision. We’re looking for a proactive Health, Safety & Facilities Manager to take full ownership of our office and laboratory spaces. This isn’t a role for someone who wants to sit behind a desk all day—it’s for a "doer" who is just as comfortable reviewing high-level safety policies as they are coordinating a courier or managing a critical building alarm.

Joining our People Team means you'll have the support of a friendly, down-to-earth group of colleagues, but the autonomy to run the site your way. If you have a "can-do" attitude, and the confidence to manage everything from landlord relationships to lab compliance, we want to hear from you!

Overview:

This is a standalone, hands-on role combining full Health & Safety ownership with day-to-day Facilities management for our office and laboratory spaces, home to around 150 people. Sitting within our friendly, supportive People Team, you'll be the site's competent person for all H&S matters. You will be equally comfortable writing policies and risk assessments as you are raising purchase orders, booking contractors, or managing the post.

You will own the site's safety, compliance, and operational effectiveness with confidence and autonomy. You'll lead our first aid team, manage the critical alarm rota, and build a strong working relationship with our building landlord. Very occasional out-of-hours attendance is required to meet contractors or respond to critical building alarms, and we offer an excellent benefits package in return.

Key Responsibilities

Health, Safety & Compliance

  • Serve as the on-site competent person, owning H&S management and driving a positive safety culture across office and lab environments.
  • Write, review, and update all H&S policies, procedures, and safe systems of work, ensuring ongoing legal compliance.
  • Conduct and regularly review risk assessments including fire, COSHH, DSE, manual handling, lone working, and new and expectant mothers.
  • Lead accident and near-miss investigations, maintain RIDDOR reporting, and implement corrective actions.
  • Liaise with insurance providers to ensure all required cover is current, adequate, and correctly displayed.
  • Monitor regulatory changes and translate them into practical business updates as required.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
