Accenture Construct – Health and Safety Manager, ANS
You've Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."
You didn't get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built.
At Accenture Construct, that's the job. You'll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.
You'll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won't be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.
THE WORK:
- You’ll develop, implement, and maintain HSE policies, procedures, and programs aligned with OSHA, EPA, ISO 45001/14001, GMP, FDA, and EMA requirements for pharmaceutical manufacturing environments.
- You’ll conduct risk assessments, hazard analyses, and site safety audits focused on chemical handling, cleanrooms, process equipment, waste management, and ergonomic risks.
- You’ll lead incident investigations for accidents, near misses, spills, and exposures, determining root causes and driving corrective and preventive actions.
- You’ll coordinate emergency preparedness programs, response planning, and drills for fire, spill, contamination, and other site emergencies while ensuring regulatory compliance.
- You’ll deliver HSE training on PPE, LOTO, chemical hygiene, cleanroom protocols, environmental regulations, and safety best practices.
- You’ll partner with engineering, operations, quality, and maintenance teams to embed HSE controls into facility design, capital projects, and day-to-day operations.
- You’ll manage environmental compliance programs covering emissions, hazardous waste, wastewater treatment, air and water permits, and sustainability initiatives.
- You’ll monitor HSE performance through KPIs, trend analysis, and continuous improvement, serve as the site HSE representative during GMP, FDA, ISO, EPA, and internal audits, and coach stakeholders to promote proactive safety behaviors and operational excellence.
- Onsite at client site: The work location for this role is onsite with our clients and partners to enable delivery and cultivate our client relationships.
HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
- Bachelor’s degree in Occupational Health & Safety, Environmental Science, Engineering, or related field
- 6+ years of HSE experience in manufacturing, with at least 3 years in life sciences/pharma environments
BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE:
- Master’s degree in Occupational Health & Safety, Environmental Science, Engineering, or a related field, with 8+ years of HSE experience in manufacturing (at least 5 in life sciences/pharma) and certifications such as NEBOSH, CSP, or similar
- Strong knowledge of OSHA, EPA, ISO 45001/14001, GMP, FDA, and EMA regulations, with familiarity with cleanroom standards, chemical hygiene plans, and LOTO procedures
- Experience managing environmental programs (ETP, air and water compliance) and sustainability projects, as well as site-wide audits, continuous improvement methodologies, risk assessments, incident investigation protocols, and emergency response planning
- Excellent communication, training, and analytical skills, with the ability to engage at all organizational levels and proficiency in Microsoft Office and EHS systems
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU
- The biggest builds going. Hyperscale data centers, grid and generation, transit and rail, chip fabs, mines, water. If it's complex and it matters, it's on our list.
- You own the outcome. Not a workstream. Not a deliverable. Whether the program lands.
- AI that shows up on site. Program control that predicts instead of records. You'll use it, and you'll help shape it.
- Scale without the distance. More than 5,000 practitioners across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, on a team small enough that people know your name.
- Serious investment in you. Leadership development, technical upskilling and certification support.
- Work that outlasts you. People will use what you build for forty years without knowing your name. That's the point.
- Recognition that means something in this industry. Accenture Construct is ranked #6 globally in ENR's 2026 Top 50 Program Management Firms and #4 in Building Design + Construction's Top 80 Construction Management Firms for 2026.
