Construction Safety Manager

Description:

As Construction Safety Manager, you will lead the day-to-day management of contractors working across the Resort, setting clear expectations and ensuring our safety standards are consistently maintained. Acting as the key link between project teams, contractors and operational departments, you will help create an environment where major developments can progress safely alongside the daily operation of the park.

You will review and approve Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS), oversee contractor onboarding and inductions, issue Permits to Work and ensure compliance with established site processes. Working closely with project managers, security teams and operational leaders, you will coordinate traffic management, delivery schedules and site access arrangements to minimise disruption and maintain the safety of guests, colleagues and third parties.

A visible presence on site, you will regularly inspect active work areas, monitor contractor performance and ensure safe working practices are being followed. You will investigate concerns, incidents and non-compliance where required, driving actions through to completion and helping contractors understand what good safety performance looks like. Through collaboration, influence and attention to detail, you'll support a safe and successful delivery of multiple projects across the Resort.

You will also work closely with Principal Contractors and external partners where projects interface with operational areas, ensuring changing site boundaries, guest interactions and evolving project requirements are effectively managed and communicated.
