About Camden
Camden is changing on the inside to make life better for everyone. Our residents and communities are at the heart of everything we do. We’re home to the most important conversations happening today and we’re making radical social change a reality, so that nobody gets left behind. Here’s where you can help decide a better future for us all.
What You’ll Be Doing
As Health and Safety Manager, you will lead the delivery of health and safety across Camden's Property Directorate, acting as the competent person for a diverse portfolio of services that includes repairs, maintenance, compliance and capital investment programmes worth approximately £120m each year. This is a high-profile leadership role where you will be responsible for embedding a positive health and safety culture across a workforce of around 400 employees and ensuring that health and safety remains at the heart of service delivery.
Working closely with senior leaders, managers, contractors and residents, you will provide expert advice and assurance on health and safety matters, supporting legal compliance and effective risk management across the Directorate. You will lead a specialist team, including asbestos professionals, oversee the delivery of asbestos management arrangements, and support the development of building safety plans for Camden's housing stock. You will also play a key role in monitoring performance, developing training and competency programmes, managing service budgets, and driving continuous improvement through the effective use of data, insight and best practice.
This is an exciting opportunity to influence strategic decision-making, shape health and safety standards across a large and varied property portfolio, and make a meaningful difference to the safety and wellbeing of Camden's residents, employees and partners.
