Global Health & Safety Manager - Non Industrial (CDD)

As part of Pernod Ricard’s “Taking Care of Each Other” journey, the Group Health & Safety Project Manager will play a central role in shifting the non industrial safety performance in the Group. This is a mission of impact: to elevate our ambition beyond physical safety, embracing mental health and a people-first approach that makes safety everyone’s business.

This is a fixed-term contract starting ASAP and will finish in August 2026.

Working closely with the H&S Group Director, you will:

1. Deliver the Health & Safety roadmap by 2030 and expand our ambition: Vision 0

• Partner with HR to embed a holistic approach to H&S, ensuring alignment across non-industrial sites (offices, sales teams, brand homes etc.), with a dual focus on both physical safety and mental health.

• Benchmark across industries, with a particular emphasis on non-industrial contexts, to identify and integrate leading-edge practices.

2. Drive health & safety performance improvement in non-industrial environments

• Strengthen H&S principles and processes, adapted to the realities of non-industrial work.

• Track clear, meaningful KPIs and develop specific Operating Requirements for offices, sales, and other non-industrial functions.

• Harness data and technology to bring transparency, insights, and acceleration in performance.

3. Influence leaders and embed a behaviour-based culture

• Engage, coach, and inspire leaders and teams in non-industrial settings to embrace a culture of care and shared accountability.

• Act as a catalyst for the cultural evolution needed to become best-in-class.

4. Spread a culture of Health & Safety across the Group

• Animate and engage the H&S network of point of contacts to amplify the “#BetheOne” mindset.

• Develop awareness and skills through training, sharing of best practices, and learning from each other.

This role is more than execution—it’s about shaping a sustainable, people-centred future where better safety truly means better business.
