We are currently seeking a seasoned EHS Lead to take ownership of all health, safety, and environmental operations on a flagship hyperscale data centre project in Norway.

Deliver daily safety briefings, toolbox talks, and ongoing training to operational staff
Liaise with project leadership, client reps, and local authorities to ensure seamless communication
Champion a "safety in design" approach alongside QA/QC, construction, and commissioning teams
What We’re Looking For:
NEBOSH or equivalent EHS certification is essential; degree-level qualifications a strong plus
5+ years' experience in a senior EHS role on major construction or infrastructure projects
Strong working knowledge of Nordic/EU HSE legislation and international best practices
Background in mission-critical environments (e.g., data centres, pharma, semiconductor) highly desirable
Proven leadership capability, confident in driving standards and influencing behaviour across teams
Excellent communication skills; English fluency is a must, Nordic language skills a bonus
Based in or willing to relocate to Norway – full relocation and local support provided
What’s on Offer:
€115,000 – €120,000 base salary
Accommodation and full rotation/travel package
Permanent position on a high-value, technically complex build
Long-term progression within a rapidly expanding contractor in a booming sector
Work within a driven, professional team focused on delivering world-class outcomes in safety and execution
