4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Programme Implementation Rate
Percentage of new H&S programmes (e.g., a new Permit to Work system) successfully rolled out across assigned sites.
Target · 90% completion within agreed timelines

Successfully launched the new contractor safety induction programme at 4 out of 5 target sites by Q2, with the final site due in Q3 after a major refit.

Reduction in Site-Specific LTIFR/TRIR
Year-on-year reduction in Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate and Total Recordable Incident Rate for sites under your influence.
Target · 10-15% reduction YoY

Helped Site A reduce its TRIR from 1.8 to 1.5 over the last 12 months, largely due to improved near-miss reporting and corrective actions.

Corrective Action Closure Rate
Percentage of identified corrective actions from audits or incident investigations that are closed out on time.
Target · 95% closure within 60 days

Ensured 28 out of 30 corrective actions from the Q1 audit at the Manchester plant were completed and verified by the end of May.

Safety Observation Quality & Volume
Number of quality safety observations (e.g., using a specific app) submitted per employee, and the quality of the observations (e.g., identifying root causes).
Target · Average 2 observations/employee/month; 75% include a suggested improvement

Increased safety observations at the Leeds facility by 30% last quarter, with over 80% of them suggesting practical solutions, not just pointing out problems.

Leadership Engagement & Support
Site and operational leaders actively championing H&S initiatives and integrating safety into their daily decisions.
  • Regular participation in safety walks, proactive discussions about safety in team meetings, visible support for 'Stop Work Authority', and allocating resources for safety improvements without constant prompting.
Effectiveness of Incident Investigations
Leading complex incident investigations that move beyond immediate causes to identify systemic issues and implement sustainable preventative measures.
  • Investigation reports clearly outlining Root Cause Analysis (RCA) findings, actionable recommendations that address systemic failures, and positive feedback from affected employees and management on the thoroughness and fairness of the process.
Mentorship & Team Development
Providing effective guidance and support to junior H&S team members, helping them grow their skills and confidence.
  • Junior colleagues actively seeking your advice, improved performance in their assigned tasks, positive feedback during peer reviews, and their ability to take on more complex work independently over time.
Programme Impact & Acceptance
New H&S programmes are well-received by the workforce and genuinely improve safety behaviours, rather than just being seen as more paperwork.
  • Positive feedback from front-line workers during safety committee meetings, high adoption rates of new procedures, observed changes in safe work practices, and fewer incidents related to the hazards the programme was designed to address.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Making a Tangible Difference

You'll get a real kick out of seeing a safety programme you designed actually reduce incidents, or watching workers adopt a new, safer way of doing things. It's about seeing your efforts translate into real-world protection.

Successfully rolling out a new machine guarding protocol that prevents a serious injury, and hearing directly from an operator how much safer they feel.

Solving Complex Problems

You enjoy digging into the details of an incident, using Root Cause Analysis to figure out not just 'what happened' but 'why it happened' and 'how we stop it happening again'. It's like being a detective for safety.

Unravelling a series of near-misses to discover a hidden systemic flaw in a maintenance procedure, then designing a fix that prevents future issues.

Building a Stronger Culture

You're motivated by helping people see safety as a shared responsibility, not just 'H&S's job'. You'll enjoy coaching managers and engaging with employees to build a proactive safety mindset.

Seeing a site's safety committee become genuinely proactive, with employees bringing forward their own ideas for improvements rather than waiting for management to act.

What frustrates people
  • The 'Safety Cop' stereotype: constantly battling the perception that you're there to catch people out, not to help.
  • Production targets always seeming to trump safety concerns, especially when budgets are tight.
  • Having to justify every safety investment with a hard ROI, when the real benefit is preventing something catastrophic.
  • Navigating the blame game after an incident, where people try to pin it on a single worker rather than looking at systemic issues.
  • Seeing valuable incident data sit unused because no one has the time or skill to analyse it for predictive trends.
What this role does not give you
  • A quiet, predictable routine – expect urgent issues and shifting priorities.
  • Unquestioning acceptance of your recommendations – you'll need to earn buy-in.
  • A role where you can avoid difficult conversations or challenging senior leaders.
  • A purely theoretical role; you'll be out on the shop floor, getting your hands dirty (metaphorically, mostly).

6Who you work with

Your work directly influences the safety and well-being of our entire workforce, reducing incidents and ensuring we meet our legal and ethical obligations. You'll help protect our people, our assets, and our brand reputation. Frankly, you're a key part of keeping the business running smoothly and safely.

Inside the business
  • Site Operations Managers
  • Regional HR Business Partners
  • Engineering and Maintenance Teams
  • Procurement (for safety equipment and services)
  • Legal and Compliance Teams
Outside the business
  • HSE (Health and Safety Executive) inspectors
  • Certification bodies (e.g., for ISO 45001)
  • External auditors
  • Specialist H&S consultants

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Proven experience (5-8 years) in a dedicated Health & Safety role within an industrial, manufacturing, or logistics environment, or similar high-hazard sector.
  • Demonstrable experience leading and implementing H&S programmes across multiple sites or business units.
  • A strong track record of conducting thorough incident investigations and applying advanced Root Cause Analysis techniques.
  • Experience mentoring or informally leading junior H&S professionals.
  • Excellent communication and influencing skills, with the ability to engage effectively with all levels of an organisation, from front-line staff to senior management.
  • A recognised H&S qualification, such as a NEBOSH Diploma or equivalent (more on this below).

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Human & Organisational Performance (HOP)

We're moving away from 'blame the worker' to understanding that human error is often a symptom of system design flaws. A deeper understanding of HOP principles helps design more resilient systems and fosters a 'Just Culture'.

Safety-II Principles · Normalisation of Deviance · Organisational Drift · Psychological Safety

  • This month: Read Sidney Dekker's 'Field Guide to Understanding Human Error' or James Reason's 'Human Error'.
  • Month 2: Apply HOP principles to your next incident investigation, looking for system failures rather than just individual actions.
  • Month 3: Lead a discussion with your site leadership on how to foster a 'Just Culture' within their teams.
  • Month 4: Identify one operational process that could be redesigned to be more 'error-proof' based on HOP principles.

Quick win: In your next incident debrief, ask 'What was the system doing to the person?' instead of 'What was the person doing?'

Advanced Risk Modelling & Bowtie Analysis

As operations become more complex, simple risk matrices aren't enough. Visual and dynamic risk models like Bowtie analysis help us understand complex hazard pathways, identify critical controls, and communicate risk more effectively to diverse audiences.

Barrier Management · Critical Controls · Dynamic Risk Assessment · Bowtie Software Proficiency

  • This month: Take an accredited course on advanced Bowtie analysis or similar risk modelling techniques.
  • Month 2: Lead a Bowtie workshop for a high-risk process at one of your sites, involving operational teams.
  • Month 3: Use BowTieXP (or similar software) to build a comprehensive risk model for a new project or significant change.
  • Month 4: Present the insights from a Bowtie analysis to senior management, explaining the critical controls and their health.

Quick win: Start using simple Bowtie diagrams in your incident investigations to visualise the breakdown of barriers.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly attend industry conferences and seminars to stay abreast of emerging H&S trends and technologies.
  • Actively participate in professional H&S networks and forums to share best practices and learn from peers.
  • Undertake continuous professional development (CPD) to maintain and enhance your professional qualifications and memberships.
  • Seek out opportunities to lead internal projects or task forces that stretch your H&S expertise into new areas (e.g., contractor management, ergonomics).

10How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

The new skill this role is being asked for: Data Storytelling & Predictive Analytics

We're drowning in H&S data (incidents, near-misses, observations), but often struggle to turn it into actionable insights that prevent future harm. The shift is from simply reporting what happened to predicting what *will* happen and communicating that story compellingly to decision-makers.

We'll only ever tell you what we can actually back up. No hype, no scare tactics.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Senior Global Head of Health and Safety is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, Health & Safety involves a fair bit of admin and data crunching. What if you could cut down on that, freeing you up to focus on what actually matters: preventing incidents and building a safer culture? AI isn't here to replace you; it's here to make you incredibly more effective.

For a Senior Global Head of H&S, AI means less time buried in reports and more time on the shop floor, influencing behaviour and solving real problems. Imagine getting a head start on incident reports, understanding regulatory changes faster, or even crafting tailored safety messages in minutes. That's the power we're putting in your hands.

Automated Incident Triage

AI can quickly scan incoming incident reports from various sources (emails, hotlines, forms) and auto-populate the initial details in our EHS management platform (like Intelex or Cority). It'll even flag high-severity events for your immediate human review, so you're not sifting through everything manually. Think of it as your first line of defence, giving you a head start on investigations.

Predictive Risk Hotspotting

Imagine an AI model looking at all our historical incident data, near-miss reports, and safety observations, then cross-referencing it with operational data like shift patterns, weather, or production schedules. It can then predict *where* and *when* the next high-risk situation might occur, helping you proactively target your interventions before an incident even happens. It's about moving from reactive to truly predictive safety.

Regulatory Change Summariser

Keeping up with global H&S regulations is a full-time job in itself. AI tools can monitor regulatory bodies (HSE, OSHA, etc.) and provide you with concise, plain-English summaries of proposed changes. Even better, it can highlight the direct impact these changes might have on our existing corporate policies, saving you hours of legalistic reading and analysis.

Smart 'Safety Moment' Generator

Need a quick, engaging 'Safety Moment' for a team meeting or a toolbox talk for the shop floor? AI can draft tailored scripts based on recent site-specific incidents, global trends, or even specific hazards you want to highlight. It can adapt the language and tone for different audiences, ensuring your message lands effectively and saves you time brainstorming from scratch.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Senior Global Head of Health and Safety, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Senior Global Head of Health and Safety: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.
