HSEQ Manager

Location: Newport

Salary: £40,000 – £50,000 plus benefits

An excellent opportunity to join a well-established steel manufacturing business with a strong commitment to Health, Safety, Environment and Quality.

I’m partnering with a respected steel manufacturer in Newport to recruit an experienced, hands-on HSEQ Manager. This is a key site-based role offering autonomy, visibility and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact across HSEQ in a heavy industrial setting.

The Opportunity

You’ll act as the site lead for HSEQ, working closely with operational and management teams to embed best practice.

Key Responsibilities (Snapshot)

Lead risk assessments across key manufacturing processes and drive actions to completion

Maintain and develop HSEQ systems aligned to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001

Plan and conduct internal audits and manage corrective actions

Investigate incidents, near misses and hazards, identifying root causes and improvements

Analyse HSEQ data, trends and KPIs to support continuous improvement

Provide practical H&S support to operational and project teams (including rail-related standards)

Deliver in-house H&S training and support the company’s sustainability journey

About You – Essential

Proven HSEQ experience, ideally within manufacturing or heavy industry

NEBOSH and/or IOSH qualified

Qualified and experienced in internal auditing

Strong mathematical and analytical skills

Team-focused, with the ability to lead when required

Practical problem solver with a solutions-led approach

Flexible and adaptable

Confident representing the business and management team

Excellent communication skills

IT literate

Why This Role Stands Out

Strong senior-level commitment to HSEQ

Opportunity to influence and improve site-wide standards

Long-term role with autonomy and responsibility
