Who are we looking for? We are looking for someone who is confident in their expertise but remains approachable and pragmatic. You are able to give clear advice, whether it has been requested or not, and you feel comfortable challenging colleagues when necessary. At the same time, you understand the reality of a complex technical and production environment.

You bring: · An MVK (Middelbare Veiligheidskunde) qualification or equivalent. · Several years of relevant experience in an HSE or safety role. · Experience within the offshore, metal, heavy construction, energy, process or chemical industry. · Knowledge of relevant HSE legislation, industry standards and safety requirements. · Preferably experience with offshore projects and the standards and working practices common within the offshore industry. · The ability to work independently, take initiative and follow through on actions. · Strong communication skills and the confidence to engage with people at all levels of the organisation. · A practical and solution-oriented mindset. · The ability to switch easily between policy and practice, and between the office and the work floor. · Good command of Dutch and English . Who are you? · You do not wait for someone to ask your opinion when you see an opportunity to improve safety. You step forward, start the conversation and help find a practical solution. · You can discuss requirements with a project manager in the morning and walk the yard with production colleagues in the afternoon. You understand both perspectives and know how to bring them together. · Above all, you believe that good HSE management is not about creating more paperwork. It is about creating a working environment in which people understand the risks, take responsibility and can do their job safely. What our client offers · A challenging role within a leading company in the offshore substation sector. · A pleasant working environment with skilled and experienced colleagues. · The opportunity to contribute to large-scale, sustainable offshore wind projects. · A competitive salary and attractive benefits package in accordance with the Metalektro Collective Labour Agreement, including a 60% employer pension contribution. · 27 vacation days and 13 additional days off. · Development budget available for job-related training.
