We’d all like amazing work to do, and real work-life balance. That’s waiting for you at Sainsbury’s. Corporate Services is made up of specialist teams, namely Legal, Information Security, Safety & Insurance, and Company Secretary & Share Management. While they’re distinct areas, we all deal with risk. So that covers how we identify risk to the business, people, stakeholders and shareholders, how we assess and evaluate the impact of risks, and how do we mitigate them or even accept them. What makes us different is that we have real exposure to other specialisms; we don’t operate in a silo and can move laterally into other opportunities. We also have an amazing leadership team — which is 50% women — and a genuine passion for Sainsbury’s as a brand and as a place to be. Which makes this a place where you should be.
Joining Sainsbury's as the Facilities Management Safety Manager means being part of a forward-thinking and inclusive team dedicated to ensuring the safety and well-being of customers, colleagues, contractors, and visitors across our diverse sites. You will have the opportunity to leverage your expertise in safety management to drive impactful change, reduce risks, and uphold legal compliance standards while contributing to the continuous improvement of our safety processes. With the support of a collaborative environment, access to ongoing training and development, and the chance to make a real difference in creating a safe and secure environment, this role offers a fulfilling and rewarding career path within a reputable and customer-focused organisation.
What you'll do
As the FM Safety Manager within Sainsbury's Group Safety & Insurance division, you will be responsible for ensuring effective management and support of all facilities management work across Sainsbury's sites, including depots, local fulfilment centres, store support centres, and product development studios. Your role will involve providing expertise and advice on FM safety management, covering both soft and hard services, to mitigate safety risks and ensure legal compliance. You will work closely with FM teams and contractors to create a risk profile of facilities management work, conduct detailed accident investigations, and implement safety improvements to minimise harm to customers, colleagues, contractors, and visitors. Your role will also focus on supporting the corporate FM safety processes and compliance to meet legal requirements and promote a safe environment for all stakeholders.
Who you are
As an FM Safety Manager, you are an experienced health & safety professional with a proven track record in managing facilities management safety across a diverse range of sites. Ideally with NEBOSH or equivalent qualifications, your expertise in data analysis, creating risk profiles, risk management, and compliance ensures the effective identification and rectification of safety defects to prevent harm and maintain legal compliance. With strong interpersonal skills and the ability to collaborate cross-functionally, you provide guidance and support to FM teams, senior leadership and contractors, ultimately driving a culture of safety and minimising risks to customers, colleagues, contractors, and visitors.
We are committed to being a truly inclusive retailer, so you’ll be welcomed whoever you are and wherever you work. Around here, there’s always the chance to try something new - whether that’s as part of an evolving team or somewhere else across the business - and we take development seriously and promise to support you. We also recognise and celebrate colleagues when they go the extra mile and, where possible, offer flexible working. When you join our team, we’ll also offer you an amazing range of benefits.
