Shape the Future of Workplace Wellbeing! OH Medical is recruiting for a leading Occupational Health provider looking to appoint an experienced Occupational Health Ergonomist to join their growing MSK team.
This is your chance to step into a role where ergonomics isn’t just reactive… it’s embedded into the design, engineering, and future of work itself. You’ll be working closely with multidisciplinary teams to improve how people interact with their environments across a major, fast-paced manufacturing setting.
The Role
As an Occupational Health Ergonomist, you’ll play a key role in delivering a high-quality ergonomics service across multiple sites, ensuring both compliance and innovation in workplace design.
Your responsibilities will include:
Conducting ergonomic assessments in both physical environments and via specialist software
Producing clear, evidence-based reports within agreed timeframes
Supporting internal stakeholders including engineering, manufacturing and production teams
Ensuring compliance with ergonomics procedures, company standards, and legislation
Carrying out audits and follow-up assessments to drive continuous improvement
Collaborating with a wider multidisciplinary health and wellbeing team
What We’re Looking For
We’re keen to hear from Ergonomists who bring both technical expertise and a proactive mindset:
A degree (or equivalent) in ergonomics is essential
Strong IT skills with the ability to analyse and present data effectively
Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
Ability to manage projects independently and prioritise workload
A collaborative approach with a passion for improving workplace health
Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel between sites
Desirable:
Experience within manufacturing or engineering environments
Project management experience
Working towards or holding professional membership (e.g. CIEHF)
Salary & Benefits
Salary up to £44,000 per annum (depending on experience)
Contributory pension scheme (up to 6%)
Life assurance
25 days annual leave + bank holidays (increasing with service)
Birthday day off
Discounted gym membership
Cycle to work scheme
Health cashback plan
Professional registration fees paid
Why Apply?
This is more than a desk-based ergonomics role. You’ll be influencing real-world environments, supporting large-scale operations, and helping shape healthier, safer workplaces from the ground up.
If you enjoy combining science, people, and practical impact, this role is ready and waiting.
