Hse Coördinator vacatures bij Euro Pool System

Health and Safety Coordinator

Operations & Supply Chain

Rijswijk, Netherlands Mid level Full time

Are you up for the challenge of standardizing health and safety practices across regions, ensuring consistency and effectiveness in every aspect of our international operations?

The role

At Euro Pool System (EPS), we're proud of our reusable folding crates that keep the supply chain moving in a sustainable way. But behind the crates, there's a young and dedicated SHEQ team making sure everything runs safely, sustainably, and with top-notch quality.

We're not the "SHEQ police" -we're problem-solvers and change-drivers . We collaborate closely with colleagues across Europe, helping them work smarter, safer, and more sustainably. Together, we make sure that our products and operations meet the highest standards while caring for the people behind them and the planet we all share.

In this role, you'll drive the harmonization of SHEQ standards across European sites, focusing on safety, environmental responsibility, and digital innovation. You'll strengthen safety culture through risk assessments, incident investigations, and consistent practices, while overseeing environmental management, compliance, and sustainability projects.

Are you passionate about making a tangible difference in workplace safety, leveraging your field experience to drive meaningful change?

You'll lead audits and continuous improvement of SHEQ systems and spearhead the transition to new software-configuring, implementing, and training users. By creating digital dashboards and harmonizing documentation and workflows, you'll simplify processes and enable data-driven insights. Collaboration is key: you'll work closely with regional teams, share best practices, and support European initiatives that advance SHEQ and sustainability.

We're looking for a SHEQ Coordinator (Safety & Environment focus) to join our team at the Central Office in Rijswijk, supporting our European operations with a strong emphasis on safety management, environmental performance, and digital transformation.
