At LondonEnergy, we’re proud of our vital role in managing North London’s waste and protecting the environment. As part of the team, you’ll already know that we handle and process 750,000 tonnes of waste each year, making us the second largest waste contract in the UK.

Together, we generate enough energy from waste to power around 80,000 homes annually and recycle 70% of items through our Reuse and Recycling Centres. This is only possible thanks to the dedication of our people, who make a real difference every day.

About the Role:

We are looking for a proactive and experienced Transition Health & Safety Manager to provide dedicated H&S leadership and oversight across the Energy Recovery Facility (ERF) project being delivered through our Transition programme.

- Review, develop and deliver H&S documentation and deliverables in line with project plans and programme requirements.
- Identify and track required H&S documents and products, working collaboratively with the HSE team, ERF Operations and Maintenance teams, and the Transition Department.
- Ensure H&S requirements are embedded throughout project planning, design, mobilisation, commissioning and operational readiness activities.
- Develop and implement appropriate H&S standards, procedures and practical, digitally enabled Safe Systems of Work (SSoW) for new processes, equipment and operational activities.
