Health, Safety & Facilities Manager Review

As the Health, Safety and Facilities Mgr I manage all H&S and Facilities daily requests. I ensure MD GROUP and it’s employees are adhering to current legislation. I monitor H&S risks and hazards in the workplace and advise the company and employees on how to minimise or ultimately avoid risks in the workplace. I plan and co-ordinate the essential services, installations and refurbishments within the office. I manage the upkeep of equipment and supplies to determine the need for repairs or renovations and liaise with contractors to ensure compliance and high standards of workmanship.

I have learnt new skills and developed in others. Skills such as self- awareness and understanding my emotional intelligence will not only enhance me professionally but also within my personal relationships. Sourcing Leadership styles and methods and learning how I lead has been beneficial as has the conflict module

The amount of work involved and the commitment required by myself was an eye opener. Writing the first assessment took a long time as I was unsure what was expected. I soon learnt that I needed to utilise my tutor, Ann. Once I established that connection and reached out for help and received it then the tasks did not seem so difficult to complete and I am enjoying the programme more.

Portal is difficult to navigate and some questions are duplicated ( asked in a different way).

The company provide a lot of support as they are highly invested in developing their staff.

As much as I need abs more! Ann is so helpful, supportive and motivational. She is so easy to talk to. I look forward to our sessions.

As advised previously it has developed my knowledge and skill base across various areas and provided me with additional skills such as self-awareness to assist me in improving my myself and in turn the way I manage and lead people now and in the future.

We have a table tennis team, football team and the company provides networking days outside of the pandemic.

Yes

It’s a large company with a small feel to it. The CEO and MDs are known to employees, especially those who work in HO. The company invests in its people heavily with training and development. The Company is changing and developing all the time so there are development opportunities aplenty.

A great place to work, lovely people and lots of opportunities for career progression.
