Are you an experienced Health & Safety professional with deep technical expertise and a passion for leadership? This is a unique opportunity to step into a consulting leadership role where your specialised knowledge and people skills will shape safety strategies for a diverse portfolio of clients and grow the capability of your team.

This is not your typical internal H&S manager role. You’ll be at the forefront of consulting, partnering with multiple organisations to elevate their workplace health and safety standards. If you thrive on variety, client engagement, and mentoring others, this role offers the perfect blend of strategic influence and hands-on impact. This is a fast-paced, diverse consulting environment where no two days are the same. This role is a mix of client facing and coaching and developing a team.

About you

We’re looking for a high-calibre leader who brings:

  • Advanced technical proficiency in health and safety, including audits and strategic insight.
  • Strong client advisory skills and confidence in board-level engagement.
  • Ability to design and implement practical, commercially sound, effective H&S solutions.
  • Proven experience leading and developing teams, in person and remote.
  • Curiosity and drive to stay ahead of industry trends.
  • Passion for innovation and continuous improvement.

About the role

Your week will be dynamic and rewarding:

  • Act as the go-to advisor for complex safety challenges, including board-level consulting.
  • Lead and develop a high-performing team of consultants.
  • Design and implement H&S strategies, audits, risk assessments, and training programs.
  • Build strong client relationships and deliver pragmatic, commercially sound solutions.
  • Support business development and identify opportunities for growth.

Why Join Findex?

At Findex, we offer more than just a job. We offer a career with purpose, flexibility, and growth.

  • Genuine flexible working: mix of remote and in office; flexible hours.
  • Compressed work weeks: 9-day fortnights.
  • Engaging and meaningful client work, across multiple industries.
  • Exposure to complex challenges: board-level work and industry-leading practices.
  • Amazing team culture: supportive, knowledgeable, fun, and driven.
  • Ongoing development: this is a growth role offering leadership pathways and technical growth.
  • Supportive leaders who invest in your success.
