Lead Occupational Health Nursing Delivery on a High-Profile Manufacturing Contract
Purpose and Scope of the Role
Tetra Tech has an exciting full-time opportunity for a Senior Occupational Health Practice Nurse to join our Occupational Health team on the Ford contract based in Essex.
You will support the delivery of a class-leading occupational health service, including emergency response and treatment, health surveillance, health screening, health promotion, fitness for work, and wellbeing support. As a senior clinical team member, you will help guide day-to-day site activity, support clinical standards, and act as a trusted point of contact for employees, client stakeholders, and the wider occupational health team.
Working within a multidisciplinary team of Occupational Health Nurses, Doctors, Technicians, and Advisors, you will contribute to a culture built on trust, respect, and collaboration. The team focuses on quality, manageable workloads, and long-term colleague wellbeing.
Your Impact in this Position
From the outset, you will provide safe, effective clinical support in a busy manufacturing environment, helping to prevent adverse health effects from workplace activities and supporting timely intervention when employees need care.
In the medium term, you will strengthen site awareness, support clinic efficiency, maintain accurate management information, and help ensure evidence-based practice in line with NMC requirements. Longer term, this role offers the opportunity to develop further senior occupational health capability, combining hands-on clinical delivery with leadership, stakeholder engagement, and service improvement.
