Principal People Recruitment
Cambridge, Cambridgeshire
Health and Safety Business Partner - £60,000 - £65,000 + Package - Residential Construction - East Anglia ID: 11744 Want to move away from spending your days carrying out inspections and into a role where you'll genuinely influence how Health and Safety is delivered? We're working with a growing residential construction business that's looking to appoint a Health and Safety Business Partner to support its East Anglia & Northern Home Counties region. This isn't a traditional Health and Safety Advisor role. Site inspections are carried out by an external specialist provider. Your focus will be on understanding the findings, working alongside operational teams and senior leaders, and coaching them to improve performance before issues arise. You'll be a trusted business partner, helping embed accountability and create a proactive Health and Safety culture across the region. You'll work across regional offices and live projects, partnering with everyone from Site Managers through to senior leadership. Success in this role isn't measured by the number of inspections you complete. It's measured by your ability to influence people, challenge thinking, coach managers and improve performance.

Project Manage r Channel Islands Competitive salary + Accommodation provided Permanent Please note: Although this role is advertised in London, we are looking for someone who is willing to live and work in the Channel Islands. A well-regarded construction company with established operations in the Channel Islands is strengthening its management team with the appointment of an experienced Project Manager. This is a senior, site-based role on a high-specification project with around two years to run, offering the right person a genuine opportunity to lead a complex build from the front and to build a long-term future with a respected business. Although this role is advertised in Bristol, it is based in the Channel Islands. So it would require you to live and work in the Channel. About the role: You will be the figurehead on site: the visible point of leadership running the project day to day and representing the company throughout. This is a role with real ownership, where you set the tone on site and are trusted to keep a demanding project moving.Your core focus will be coordination across every part of the project. You will work closely with the professional team, including designers, architects, and MEP consultants, bringing the various disciplines together so that the project progresses smoothly and without surprises. You will chair and manage consultant meetings, making sure that decisions are made, recorded, and followed through, and that everyone involved is working to the same programme and the same standard. You will also act as the key point of contact with the client. Building and maintaining that relationship is central to the role, keeping the client informed, managing expectations, and representing the company in a way that reflects its strong reputation. This is a reasonably complex, high-specification build, so it suits someone who is comfortable holding the detail across multiple disciplines while keeping the wider programme, the budget, and the quality of delivery firmly on track. With around two years still to run, there is plenty of scope to make a meaningful mark on the project and to see it through a significant phase of its life . What we are looking for You will bring a solid background in project management within construction, ideally gained on high-specification or technically demanding projects where quality and coordination really matter. Experience managing and coordinating a professional team is important, as is the confidence to take ownership of the client relationship and to be the senior presence on site. We are looking for someone who is organised, calm under pressure, and able to bring people together around a shared plan. Strong communication skills matter as much as technical knowledge, since so much of the role is about keeping consultants, designers, and clients aligned and moving in the same direction. That said, we are flexible on exact background. If you are close to this profile and have the right blend of experience and approach, we would still very much like to hear from you. The opportunity This is a single-status role and would suit someone looking to relocate to the Channel Islands, whether on a temporary basis for the duration of the project or as a permanent move. The Channel Islands offer an excellent quality of life, a strong sense of community, and a genuinely attractive setting in which to live and work, making this an appealing move for the right person. Accommodation is provided, which makes relocating considerably more straightforward, and the salary is competitive and reflective of the seniority of the role. Beyond the immediate project, there is genuine scope for the right person to make the role their own and to develop a lasting position with the business. Interested? Apply through this advert. We are happy to share more about the client, the project, and the package once we have had an initial conversation.
