Responsibilities:

1. Manage and deliver on all legal requirements and set goals from the Global Workplace Safety Manager and Director within France, along with supporting and managing projects in Belgium and the Netherlands.

3. Work with the Country Managers, Head of CEG, medical, fire/security team, facilities team, and GWS colleagues.

Requirements within the first 6 months:

1. Produce a H&S policy and H&S management system for France and work with key stakeholders to implement.

3. Update the Intranet site and promote within the market, including safety animations.
4. Engage with key stakeholders.
5. Attend the H&S committee meeting, working with the Country Manager to ensure engagement.

After that, there will be requirements to support the Safety Prevention Officer in delivering similar requirements in Benelux.
