Make Safety & Quality Count. Every Day.
Are you passionate about Health & Safety and quality, and creating a safe working environment? As a QHES Coordinator, you'll play a key role in supporting our QEHS team, helping to maintain the highest standards across the site while driving continuous improvement and operational excellence.
This is a varied, hands-on role where no two days are the same. You'll collaborate with colleagues across the business, work with external partners, and help shape a culture where quality, safety, and compliance are everyone's responsibility.
We're looking for someone who is passionate about quality, food safety, health and safety, and who thrives in a fast-paced manufacturing environment. You'll be a proactive problem solver who takes ownership, works confidently within established processes, and knows when to challenge the status quo to deliver the right outcome. Strong relationship-building skills, visible leadership, and the ability to coach and engage others are essential, along with a genuine commitment to continuous improvement and raising standards across the site every day.
