International Environmental Services Company
EHSQ Manager — Denmark
Denmark · Independent role, high impact · Danish and English required
Are you the one who makes EHSQ real?
This is a role for someone who believes EHSQ is about people and trust — not paperwork. You will lead EHSQ across a major Danish environmental operation, with freedom to shape your own priorities, build your team, and drive genuine change. This is not a role where you maintain the status quo — you drive the agenda in close cooperation with Operations.
The company
A well-established, purpose-driven European environmental services business that has been removing hazardous risk from industry and society for many years. EHSQ is not a function bolted on here: it is woven into the identity of the organisation. You will find a management team ready to be led.
What you will do
Leading a small team of EHSQ professionals, you will work across four areas:
- Safety leadership & culture — safety walks, root cause analysis, CEO/COO support, building awareness of the WHY behind every requirement.
- Communication & trust with Operations — one shared understanding of EHSQ, rules made understandable, dialogue not dictate.
- Legal compliance & regulatory affairs — read the law and its intent, maintain full regulatory overview, manage authority relationships constructively.
- Systems & continuous improvement — ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001, build procedures and structures fit for a growing organisation.
Who you are
- Master’s degree in a technical field, 5 years of EHSQ experience in a production or process environment.
- A communicator who adapts from shop floor to boardroom — Danish and English.
- Earns trust through presence and follow-through, not authority.
- Self-driven, strong overview, does not need to be told what to do next.
- Makes rules understandable; pushes for change with persistence and a positive mindset.
What we offer
- Real freedom to operate in a high-impact role with genuine environmental purpose.
- Competitive package — fitness, healthcare and flexible benefits.
