Safety Manager - Travel / On-site for Utility Solar
We are seeking an experienced Safety Manager to support utility-scale solar construction projects across multiple locations. This is a travel-based, on-site role requiring regular deployment to active project sites, with responsibility for promoting a strong safety culture and ensuring work is completed in accordance with applicable legislation, project requirements and industry best practice. The successful candidate will work closely with project leadership, contractors, supervisors and field teams to identify hazards, control risk and maintain high standards of health, safety and environmental performance.
Key responsibilities will include developing and implementing site-specific safety plans, procedures and training programmes; conducting regular site inspections, audits and risk assessments; reviewing method statements, job hazard analyses and permits; and supporting incident, near-miss and corrective-action investigations. You will monitor compliance with regulatory requirements and internal standards, maintain accurate safety records and reports, and provide practical guidance on topics including working at height, electrical safety, lifting operations, excavation, mobile plant, lockout/tagout and emergency response. The role will also involve leading toolbox talks, delivering safety briefings, coordinating emergency drills and stopping unsafe work where necessary.
Applicants should have substantial health and safety experience within construction, renewable energy, utilities or a similarly high-risk environment, with experience supporting large, multi-contractor projects strongly preferred. A recognised safety qualification, such as NEBOSH, IOSH or an equivalent professional credential, is required, together with a sound understanding of relevant occupational health and safety legislation. Strong communication, influencing and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the confidence to engage with personnel at all levels. The role involves frequent travel, extended periods on active outdoor worksites and the ability to work flexible hours according to project demands. A valid driving licence and willingness to travel regularly are also required.
