SHEQ Manager
Reading | Up to £65,000 + Car Allowance
Own the safety culture on a 80-person, four-line manufacturing site that's pouring millions into its next chapter.
This is the SHEQ seat you've been waiting for.
Not a desk job.
Not a policy-writing role buried in a regional team.
You'll be the senior SHEQ voice on site, reporting into senior site leadership, trusted with genuine autonomy over site delivery within a strong group framework, and backed by a FTSE-listed business that treats SHEQ as a boardroom priority, not a tick-box exercise.
The Site
A long-established heavy manufacturing operation less than 10 miles from Reading, producing at scale across four production lines.
Eight decades of heritage, but this is no museum.
The site is in the middle of a major investment programme.
New infrastructure.
New technology.
Advanced problem-solving and continuous improvement techniques being rolled out across every line.
You're coming in at the exciting bit.
The Role
You are the senior SHEQ authority on site.
Full ownership of Health, Safety, Environment and Quality delivery across the facility.
Lead the site safety culture and continuous improvement programme, embedding a genuine "home safe every day" mindset on the shop floor
Own ISO 45001, 14001 and 9001 compliance, audits, and the full site SHEQ management system
Drive incident investigation, root cause analysis and corrective action — and actually see it closed out
Partner with production, engineering and maintenance leaders to design safety INTO the process, not bolt it on afterwards
Own environmental reporting, permits, waste streams and sustainability targets
Run IOSH/NEBOSH-level training, toolbox talks and contractor management
Represent the site to HSE, EA, Group SHEQ and external auditors
Build and coach a site-wide SHEQ mindset across 80+ people and a strong leadership team
You
You've done SHEQ on a live site.
You know what a production line looks like under pressure.
You can walk the floor in PPE at 6am, have the conversation that prevents the incident, then be in front of senior leadership by 10am presenting your improvement plan.
NEBOSH Diploma (or equivalent) essential.
IEMA and Quality qualifications highly desirable
Hands-on SHEQ leadership experience in Manufacturing or Construction - heavy industrial, building materials, aggregates, concrete, cement, steel, automotive, FMCG process, or large construction sites all transfer brilliantly
Proven track record implementing safety culture programmes that actually changed behaviour
Strong across ISO 45001, 14001, 9001 (auditor qualifications a bonus)
Credible with shop-floor operators AND senior leadership - you flex both ways
Environmental compliance experience (permits, emissions, waste) - we take this seriously
What You Get
Salary between £55,000 to £65,000 depending on experience
26 days holiday + bank holidays
5% employer-matched pension scheme
Health care cash plan - dental, optical, prescriptions & more
Enhanced Maternity, Paternity & Adoption leave
Cycle to work scheme
Staff discount on products
Retail discounts & wellbeing hub
Life assurance and share purchase scheme
Genuine autonomy - you run SHEQ on this site
Career runway - this site sits within a FTSE-listed group with UK-wide manufacturing footprint
The Honest Bit
This is a site in transition and improvement.
Some legacy to modernise, serious investment behind you, and a leadership team that wants a SHEQ Manager who'll tell them the truth and drive change.
If you want an easy life managing a paper system, this isn't it.
If you want to leave a site materially safer than you found it and have the authority to make it happen - apply.
Apply
Initial conversations are confidential and we'll come back to every applicant within 48 hours.
