Are you passionate about Health & Safety and looking to take the next step in your career?
Hurst Doors is one of the UK's leading manufacturers of PVC-u panels, composite doors and composite fire doors, supplying trade customers nationwide from our manufacturing facility in Hull. For 30 years, we've built our reputation on quality, innovation and exceptional customer service, supported by a team of dedicated people who are at the heart of everything we do.
We're looking for a proactive Health & Safety Officer to join our growing QHSE team.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with practical Health & Safety experience within a manufacturing environment who enjoys working alongside production teams, solving problems and helping to create a safe, positive and engaging workplace.

- Supporting ISO 45001 compliance and internal audits.
- Delivering toolbox talks and Health & Safety communications.
- Monitoring corrective actions and ensuring they are completed.
- Supporting continuous improvement projects across the business.
- Coordinating First Aider and Fire Marshal training and compliance.

- Has practical Health & Safety experience within a manufacturing environment.

- Is confident challenging unsafe behaviours in a positive, professional and supportive way.

Desirable

What We Offer
- Competitive salary.

- 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays.
- An additional day's holiday for every completed year of service, up to a maximum of 30 days' annual leave (plus bank holidays).
- Company pension.
- Support towards further Health & Safety qualifications.
- Opportunity to work alongside an experienced QHSE Compliance Manager.
- A varied, hands-on role where you'll make a genuine impact on our safety culture.
