HSE Lead (Data Center)

As a HSE Lead, you’ll join a high-performing, culturally diverse team delivering one of Europe’s most ambitious data centre builds. You’ll play a pivotal role on a large-scale, high-voltage construction project where safety is paramount — your expertise will directly influence the success, integrity, and safety of the build. You’ll thrive in a collaborative and empowering environment where you’re supported to take ownership of your role, grow your career, and make a lasting impact.

• You ensure contractors establish and maintain outstanding safety practices and procedures, aligned with project and regulatory standards.
• You maintain and enhance health and safety management systems (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001).
